Talk:Free flight (air traffic control)

[Untitled]

I don't understand this article's confidence that free flight will definitely be implemented. It's a pretty big change with a lot of people opposed to it, and 2015 is a long way off. How about toning this down to "may"? Schoen 04:52, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

• It does seem that it has changed, thus making the page correct. Change1211 10:54, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

The article is high on speculation and low on facts. It should still be flagged as unreliable "may" and "in the next decade" - what decade, when was this written?. Reading it today I have no idea when that was written. Was it 11 years ago (and therefore possible done) or yesterday, and therefore almost certainly not done? Bold predictions of future technolgy deployment almost certainly do not belong in wikipidia, unless refereenced to a reliable source. The article completely ignores the political, social and human factors issues that a step change such as this needs before successful deployment. Can the pilots workload be increased to also perform separation tasks? The article leads me to beleive this is technology that is in implementation phase, implying it's proven to work and currently being developed, not still in research phase - this is not the case. It ignores the ecnomics of the industry - large airframes are no more capable of carrying the required equipment, and the driver for them doing so will not be size, flight level capability etc, it will be economics - wil the operator be prepared to spend the very alrge amount of money to install the requireed equipment. The latest airframes leaving the factories today, do not have the required capablity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.48.109.206 (talk) 23:33, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

I have been hearing for the last 30 years that free flight will be implemented in the next ten years. I will believe it when I see it. --Westwind273 (talk) 03:29, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
