It would be interesting to know the size of these systems, in lines of
code, segregated by language, and in dollars. (I bet you will find lots
of fortran still in use. And Jovial. Maybe even some assembly.)
Also, how much unique code is involved? For instance, the ATC systems
have lots of reused code in them; each ATC system developer has a code
base that they sell time after time, with (in theory) minor changes. One
hopes and assumes that the code for all those Boeing 7x7 aircraft is
mostly common, and well-tested.
