How insanely obsolete will they be in two years??
Does anyone know if we'll get real-time satellite weather, lightning strikes, etc? Like the guy in 2C gets now?
Purple,
I spoke with a member of the eLink team in the ATL crew room a few months ago. They absolutely are shooting to give us that technology. Also spoke of setting up the software so that as the aircraft decelerates after landing, a certain speed(maybe 60 kts) triggers the 10-9 to pop up and replace the approach plate you were referencing.
