It is not a matter of flight being cheap or expensive. If you only synchronize computer "on the order of minutes" the modern airport ceases to function as such. During initial and terminal phases, a modern jetplane move 100m/s and many major airports have runway use in 30 second timeslots. You do the math. Radar stitching requires 3msec synchronization and timestamping, throughout the entire area being stitched, often a radius of up to 1000 km. You have just confirmed my suspicion that you have not a wisper of a clue about what you are pontificating about. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 p...@freebsd.org | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
