Sitting on the Tarmac.
After a lovely week in Belfast enjoying the city and watching my
oldest friend get married I'm now stuck on the Tarmac.
Apparently they've just moved the air traffic control centre at
heathrow and 'as expected, it no longer works' (those were the pilots
words!)
Why is it that companies like google can roll out infrastructure
changes perfectly even though they are not safety critical systems yet
something like air traffic control gets screwed up so royally?

I assume NATS have finally moved the London Area Control Centre from West Drayton to Swanwick? That makes it eleven years late by my calculations ... :-)
erm....
I'll take your word for that!
I found it funny that the pilot expected it to go wrong, nice to see he had faith in the system that's meant to keep him alive on a daily basis!
