Texting from tower to cockpit could speed flights
After two years of testing, the Federal Aviation Administration is preparing to expand the use of a new technology that allows air traffic controllers and pilots to communicate via text, speeding up the process of clearing flights for takeoff.
FAA administrator Michael Huerta, along with officials from Fed Ex, UPS and United Airlines demonstrated the technology known as "Data Comm" Thursday at Newark Liberty Airport, where, along with Memphis International Airport, the new communications tool has been tested since 2013.
