This is kind of off the topic, but related. Wasn't there a discussion on IBM-Main a couple years ago about the air traffic control system being run on old IBM 3081s? If I remember right, and my memory isn't as good as it used to be, it was just a few years ago that these old machines used to control some of the air traffic control. Have these been retired yet?
If they were running on 3081s, that would be a big innovation. Last I heard they were still on 2050s (stripped down 360/50s).
