Remote Air Traffic Control, AI Implementation in Aviation
Nav Canada is implementing remote air traffic control systems, moving controllers from local towers to centralized digital hubs in cities like Kingston. While officials claim AI will help the system "learn" and improve safety, unions and travelers express concern over the loss of the "human factor" and potential technical failures. The hosts warn that consolidating these services creates a single point of failure if communication lines are severed.
