DCI versus ATF
055166K - Thanks for your genuine input. I wish that I'd kept my welcome to myself because there seems to be a lot of hostile people out there!
DCI - Ongoing tests in Detroit have shown that this is not going to make the grade before ATF. Although very simplistic, ATF uses current transponder/interrogator technology which has proved so successful in both our and the L.A trials.
If you need some convincing of this, I believe a party of your NATS team are due out here in AUGUST 2003. I'm a bit confused though, maybe you can answer a question for me. We have been developing ATFwith three prospective buyers keeping a close eye on our project. 1 - Alaskan Air Traffic Serices AATS, 2 - DFL Germany, 3 - British Airports Authority BAA. NATS was only mentioned yesterday so who owns who ? thats not my field, its just a personal question.
Cheers
