What amazes me is that their software has never been updated to support flight numbers longer than 4 digits.
Would not be very convenient to view on a radar screen.
Europe for one have used alphanumeric flight numbers for years.
Given how long humans have had to implement or fix the most basic of shit (some major apps with millions of users still don't have a Dark Mode, for example) maybe handing the reigns to AI is for the better after all..
Certainly couldn't get any worse, I mean
(I am not AI)
What would the short term ROI on that change be? That’s all they care about.
