For those not yet aware of it, the Federal Aviation Administration has
another Ada success story to share.  The US en route air traffic control
radar system now has a new display system called, logically enough, the
Display System Replacement (DSR).  DSR is replacing those garish green round
displays you see in the movies, with stunning 28" Sony monitors, backed by a
herd of IBM RS/6000 computers and a half million lines of Ada code.

Last December, DSR became fully operational at the first of twenty sites
across the US.	Bravo!
