Yes, that is the short tem problem alright, but significant capacity
would be added to the system if they had a GPC ATC system. The FAA
has failed to produce this for years and already failed miserably on
one try with a billion + loss. With the same amount of flights with
such a system, delays wouldn't be a problem.

All the space based ATC in the world isn't going to add gates and runways at
the major airports. The answer to the problem is simple. Charge more for
taking off from JFK at 8:00am than you do at 2:00am.



Gates can be a problem sometime but not runways. The GPS system would
handle about 25% more flights on the same runways. Aren't you paying
enough all ready for flights? Want to pay more when the politicos are
stealing what money is already being paid for?
