connection between plane navigation and computer on the ground?
according to the magazine E&T highlighted that physical link between plane's navigational and public or "officially" internet network. So does it mean that those agents could actually brought down these planes ?

Happens all the time cx

Being more serious, what it means is that us controllers can now work from home far more easily.

Glad someone knows what he's on about :uhoh:

So does it mean that those agents could actually brought down these planes ? Sudden thought. E&T = ET = Roswell, hangar 84? Probably not, for as the last time I was in hangar 84 in Roswell, there was a BAC1-11 in attendance, being stripped for spares. A nice one too, I believe it used to belong to Tenneco, the US gas pipeline company. Before they had the 1-11, they had a really nice Lockheed JetStar, which was eventually sold to Elvis, as I recall. It still sits in the middle of ROW, still painted the fire engine red color. I digress...what was the original question?:hmm::\:} |
This ?
My favorite quote of the article: Southwest is only just beginning to migrate from its traditional “round-dial cockpit philosophy”, which until recently dissuaded its pilots from using autopilots or autothrottles installed on their ‘next-generation’ Boeing 737s. “Instead,” reveals Hughes, “the company standardised on the classic 737 cockpits and even installed metal covers on the switches of equipment it didn't want its pilots to use.” |
Well all you need to fly a modern plane is a man and a dog.
Man is there to feed the dog Dog is there to make sure the man touches nothing.. |
