Default Future of aviation - fact or fiction

If you selected those quotes because they seemed the most amusing or
'far-fetched', then they're actually impressively close to reality.


Well, maybe for the rarified elite who can afford to buy brand new
planes equipped with G1000 glass panels.

For the rest of us, that prediction is still far, far in the future.
And, of course, weather is still the same deal-killer it was in the
50s.

The author was only off by, say, 70 years? :-)


C'mon Jay, it's only about 40 years off. This falls exactly in line with the
typical FAA project timeline!

I enjoyed Gene's post. Gives us all incentive to keep dreaming.
