(Video) Remote ATC Towers active in Sweden by Saab/LFV Team...
Comments from the flightaware think-tank Please: Could the antique ATC system in the US incorporate such a system? Is this the system of local control for the future? As a passenger would you feel comfortable landing at an airport without a real tower? What about glitches and possible weaknesses in the system?

The FAA could save a TON of money with this. Just put all those guys playing VATSIM and pipe in real aircraft in the system - easy. o.0
I dont know the details but I would like an individual onsight. In my experiance of flying sometimes the close proximity of aircraft or what if the aircraft doesnt have a radar tag. What about the lag in the video feed or movement of the camera?
Good questions - I guess we can let the Swiss try it and see if theres any black smoke.
Pretty cool.
Yeaaah great idea until the power goes out...
I'm comfortable landing at an airport without a real [or any] tower. I've done that hundreds of times, and it's not a problem.
