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?
So you are saying, at peak rush times, there is 25% extra time for
separation to be maintained?

GPS allows for closer spacing and straighter flight paths allowing
more flights to be handled in the same time span. About 25% more.

Not if the FAA ****es off all the controllers and runs them
off!! GPS is useless without controllers

The FAA is ****ing off all their controllers so GPS don't
mean **** in the big picture.
