> Do you think your model's word error rate would decrease if it had access to raw feeds from towers or was trained on data from even more airports? Yes, especially for local thing…

There's lots to discuss about the most recent Potomac River crash, but I'll let that rest for now. Your general point is 100% correct. It's not enough to only do the command parsin…

Sure, feel free to email founders @ ... One of the best parts of this job is how awesome the labeling community is. So many super qualified folks like yourself. Thank you!

But only after 1am when you're not fighting a 15 knot headwind with an A320 cleared number two.

A lot of drones these days will have ADS-B. The ones that don't probably have geo-fencing to keep them away from airports. There's also all kinds of drone detection systems based o…

At an ASDE-X equipped airport like DCA, there is surface radar that the tower manager, for example, might be keeping an eye on. This is just some screen with a high-res view of eve…

Not to spoil the reveal here, but ... yes. We're working on compiling more of these cases and will probably publish a website or paper when it's solid.

A lot of glass panels these days will do this in the PFD. You get your clearance via datalink from ATC, it loads everything right up, and you just keep the plane in the box or turn…

Speaking as a pilot for a moment, I think your instincts are correct in theory but hard to actually implement. In a critical function like control, you don't want to split a pilot'…

Good callout — we're being a little vague to the public while we build out these first use cases (HN doesn't count as the "public"). Expect more detail soon!

Good callout, thanks

Exactly, this is one of our early beachheads. If we can train better pilots, the airspace system gets safer immediately.

No stress, appreciate you chiming in. > We've accelerated past our capabilities and need to slow down. This is a super interesting meditation. As much work as there is to be done n…

Interesting paper, thanks for sharing here. Encrypting ADS-B is a whole discussion... in my opinion, it's a good thing to have largely public location data for folks to consume and…

Short answer: both. Pitching air traffic management is going to be a years long process. Getting certified for on-board avionics is similarly challenging. In the meantime, we'll ge…

Yes, this is an excellent prompt and we're working on it. One problem is a lot of these visual sources require permission, integration, and regulation. That's going to move slower …

The problem with datalink systems is they are poor substitutes for immediate control & confirmation. My co-founder Eric wrote a short piece about this: https://www.ericbutton.co/p/…

The systems I've flown have definitely been altitude aware. They won't alert if the plane is sufficiently deconflicted above or below. One problem for sure is that when you're clos…

Yes, fair points. In talking to controllers, this has already come up. There are a few systems that do advisory alerting and controllers have expressed some frustration because eac…

1. Our first product is post-op review at airports. We're selling that to airport managers who use our system for training and incident review. Today, when a ground ops vehicle (fo…

Yes, this is a challenging issue in ATC. Also, some safety systems are turned off or diminished at critical phases of flight (near the ground) because of the noise problem (TCAS, f…

Thanks! Appreciate your inputs here.

It's been interesting to see that a product as simple as combining data from multiple frequencies at once has been really compelling to folks. Can't tell you the number of times we…

I have a bit of an ax to grind with the state of pilot training tools. There's some interesting new work being done here, but agreed lots to do in this realm. What does a compellin…
