I take exception to the insinuation that just because RADAR is 1950's technology (it's actually older than that), that it is somehow inadequate. Trains are 1800's technology. Cars, early 20th century. Both have improved, as has RADAR. As far as controllers leading aircraft into thunderstorms, it is ultimately the pilots responsibility to stay out of them. Controllers will tell pilots what they see, but most of the time, pilots have a better vantage point in avoiding them.

It's easy to push for GPS requirements and sat based tech when you own a $400K airplane that's already equipped with those things. There are thousands of airplanes out there that are not equipped with GPS, most don't need to be. I fly several trips per month using a map, compass, and my eyes. The sky is NOT that congested. The major airlines want this technology because in the long run it will be cheaper for them. Our reliance on GPS is going to come back to bite us one day.
