Talk:Flight progress strip

message: I've added to this article and done some major surgery.  I hope the original authors are not offended.  I've tried to generalise it somewhat also.  As I'm involved in ATC in the UK, there is some possibility that I've used UK-only terms - please feel free to purge them if I have.BaseTurnComplete 21:24, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The concern I have is that there's no mention of the use of flight strips in procedural IFR - e.g. in parts of the world where there's no radar. I'm especially thinking of the northern part of the Edmonton, Canada FIR, where there simply is no radar and many aircraft are not equipped with up-to-date equipment. I don't know how oceanic FIRs handle traffic these days either - I suspect they use a computerized setup, but 15 years ago it was all procedural with strips. Lots of fun. --Charlene.fic 01:46, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll add something about this.  In UK ATC training they used to have a saying "The radar hides a multitude of sins; the strips can predict the future".  More relevant to en route control than terminal or tower, but still a revealing little saying.  btw Shanwick Oceanic control has computerised strips; it was one of the first centres to go computerised back in the eighties.BaseTurnComplete 21:22, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

text: There's an article here: Procedural control which obviously is closely related to flight strips! 
I have a couple of strips from one of my IFR flights I got from a controller. If anyone thinks this would help the article I could scan one and post it here. Since it has my actual N number I'd want to photoshop that down to the last 3 characters of the callsign. Not sure if that violates any guidelines though. Any thoughts on if this is a good idea?

text: I restored the digital flight strips part to this page as I have neither found the digital flight strips article where this part was supposedly moved to nor any other references to the digital flight strips on wikipedia. Please feel free to contribute or continue writing here! Xfects (talk) 11:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
