ERAM Errors
If you didn’t read the update on ERAM at The FAA Follies yesterday, go there and read it now. In summation, “We’ve got no (backup) plan and we’re sticking to it.”

The Flick -- A term used by air traffic controllers to describe a mental model representing the current and future positions of air traffic in a section of airspace. Controllers visualize the paths of multiple aircraft in terms of position, altitude, trajectory and speed. Controllers also refer to this as "having the picture." But the picture moves -- like a movie -- hence the term “the flick.”
