  When I was in Germany, I attended a "German Ada Expo" in Jnauary,
1990.  An individual who had participated in building the the
Koberhagen ATC was there.  At that point, it had been running for
six months, and (according to him) there had been NO outages or
major erorrs traced to the Ada software.

  Sorry, my procedings are packed, so I can't give a better reference.
