Definitely enough to cause a serious backup.

Well, since this will be a complete choke point, they'll need hundreds of cables or have huge lines.
Imagine if they had one scanner. That took 5 minutes per person.
Yeah, that explains the worst air pollution on earth.
Yes, it's all America's fault that China didn't ever implement air scrubbing devices.
Considering the screens could be a lot larger than the windows, AND the cameras could see through fog/rain/snow, I'd guess the pilots would prefer the screens.
They basically do.
Pilots ignore them because they think they're infallible.
Also, the gp said 'disinterested'. That doesn't do it, it's disorientation. And it's weird.
I did some IFR training for my VFR. My head was about 15 degrees off from the instruments in the foggles (fogged goggles so you can only see instruments). And not always in the same direction, though I was typically 15 degrees to the right.
I didn't even think about that.
Radar cameras could easily see through the fog/rain/snow. Fewer 'controlled flight into terrain' accidents.
If they can see the leading edges of the wings, perhaps fewer icing incidents as well.
This should actually improve flight safety by eliminating the shortcomings that windows have.
It depends on the airport, pilot & airplane.
If all are certified, yes they can land in zero visibility to 0' AGL.
Only true if the government intentionally ignores history.
Hell, they'll change the meaning of words so they can do just that.
They'll just take the whole damn phone.
I'm just wondering if they're going to have dozens of electrical outlets & hundreds of wall warts & cables so that you can give a dead phone some charge, or are they just going to steal them like usual?
The TSA is probably thinking
LOL!
So, you can't heat the nozzles together, but control the flow separately?
Why not?
Or a startup/large corporation/VC.
