The NAS replacement is iTEC but it may not be deployed to all centres at the same time. If it isn't the ex MAC sectors are more likely to move to iTEC when LAC does rather than when ScAC does.

Why would you split a quarter of the room on to a totally different system??
(And this still seems to be the wrong thread!)

Anyone heard of Project 3909?
Those with access to project documents may care to look at
Operational ATC Assessment of a Phased Transition to iTEC and NAS and Related Systems Changes to Support iTEC Phased Transition
They may have been produced by people who are suffering from caffeine OD from too much time in Starbucks, but the options proposed are still under consideration.
(anyone heard of the roadmap?)

Initially NAS will drive the MACC sectors and iTEC will drive ScAC at PC.
To clarify - this relates to the first phase of ITEC, EFD may well go into LTC first as its an option.

ScACC and MACC cease to exist at PC 'O' date, all the sectors integrate into Prestwick Centre.

I particularly enjoyed the ATC documentwhich serves to show the gap between the engineering solution and the ATC 'need'.
Lots more work needed though, especially if they're going to put some PC sectors on iTEC and leave some on NAS for a long period of time during the phased transition. Anyone taking any bets on when iTEC will be introduced, to the nearest decade

mode S I believe in the LAC ops room by Feb2010, which is coincidental with the planned iFACTS albeit limited sectors 'O' date. If and when iFACTS slips we have been assured than MODE S still comes in as one project is not dependant on the other.
