As a former private pilot and air traffic controller in the Swiss air force, my idea of installing inexpensive electronic equipment on airliners could avert future air disasters such as 9/11 and the recent crash of an Airbus in southern France. The idea is so simple it boggles the mind that it has not already been tried, especially since most of the equipment is already on board.
