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.

Your opinion about me being "racist" is just like an
asshole. Everyone has one at it stinks. Including yours.

If they are heavies, the separation for wake turbulence is what the limiting
factor for separation, isn't it?

Well, wake turbulence is certainly a factor, particularly for the A380
which may slow down things even further. Which raises the question as
to whether it should be penalized more than others if they start to
use penalties.

If it takes up more of a scarce asset then of course it should pay more.

You need up to six miles behind a heavy. Your spamcan needs four miles
behind a large, such as a B737. To say GPS increases available capacity
25% is ludicrous.
