'Y2K compliance in apron services - refuelling, baggage control' From C.S.Y2K; thanks to Michael McCormack John ----- x4.dejanews.com 3&hitnum=2 'I'm told Royal Dutch/Shell has just undertaken a pilot project at Schipol airport (Amsterdam) to look at Y2K compliance in apron services - refuelling, baggage control, all the stuff that happens to a parked plane between flights. They appear to have found that more than 90 per cent of such services depend on equipment that contains - you guessed it - embedded chips. What's interesting to me is that this appear to have been the first study of its kind anywhere in the world. A trawl through the web brought back no hits on apron services that made reference to Y2K. No wonder KLM ain't keen to fly on 01/01/2000.'
