I worked in aviation as a technologist. Aviation is resistant to change. Any change. When you fly older aircraft, be aware that the software is old. Very old. As in some of the vendors long ago stopped supporting the software kind of old, assuming the vendors still exist. Aviation didn't wake up one day with the sudden appearance of 5G. They knew it was comming. They, aviation themselves, are heavily involved in standards. Aviation had plenty of time to test, correct, and protest. What aviation now wants is a 5G exclusion zone around airports, or what I sarcastically call "a technology exclusion zone," which tends to be businesses and homes. What is aviation going to do when 6G comes along? A new WiFi standard is implemented? Any other unforeseen future wired/wireless technologies? Or perhaps cell phones should go back to Morse Code for aviation's sake? 🤷♂️️ -- Dennis Glatting Numbers Skeptic
