Ha ha, we are already living the Jetsons.

Many people have central heat and air, and a closed in dome environment of their home. Where they go to their closed in garage and get into their space fairing craft, proceeded to maneuver themselves to the tall skyscraper in which they pull into a closed garage controlled by central heat and air systems. They go to work for the day and go home. Now, of course many people work outside of the office, but that is never covered in the Jetsons.

Everyone is always wearing space suit of some type to protect from the outside harsh environment.

I use a lot of software. Buggy as all get out apps gets tossed for apps that work.

Being stuck with buggy software from the 1940’s sounds worse to me.

I meant if air traffic controllers were trying to do the job of the Waze application for people driving their cars and telling them which wayto turn in order to get to their destination. I should have saved that more clear.

Of course these would be different than air, traffic controllers, if we were living in the future of Back to the Future II, our cars would be flying by now.

I’m sorry, I guess I could post this elsewhere, but there is computer software that can do a lot better job than people at determining possible collisions That software can notify people who can then oversee the change in flight pattern.

Currently the warning system still requires human acknowledgment without any communication to the Vehicle/vehicles involved.

A system that would work would notify the individuals who are flying within their instrument panels similar to how we use Waze in a car to notify us if we need to turn right. Having 1 million air traffic controllers trying to do that job for the user is just foolish.

Me missing the entire thing by referencing:

“The Gulf” all these years.

Strawberry Mansion movie had something like this

Read about the MATRIX system from Lockheed Martin. The tests done on a remote flying Blackhawk helicopter in November 2024.

Remotely controlled helicopter needs no regard for commands from Air Traffic Control.

NOAA stopped the ferry service between small Hawaiian islands, so that the those that were unable to afford a plane ticket would be stuck to one island at a time. Many on The Big island were I lived local, flip flops and community dwellings, the hit for inner island transit had taken a hard tole, with many long time locals were leaving.

The reasoning… boats were messing with Whales. I think the Whales have a mind of their own.

2012 prius-c, physical air-conditioning temp knob, physical buttons for everything. Added CarPlay receiver, and it’s the perfect vehicle. No electronic “syncing” to be done. Just works.
