FAA to add new digital air traffic control system at Rochester airport, replacing floppy disks Hunter Wright News10NBC 34 minutes ago ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is replacing old floppy disks in air traffic control systems with new digital technology. The Frederick Douglass Greater Rochester International Airport is among the first to get the upgrade. The system gives controllers faster access to critical information and replaces four older systems from the 1980s. It comes as the U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy announced Thursday that the FAA is continuing its modernization of America’s air traffic control system. The FAA is installing the Enterprise Information Display System in more than 400 facilities around the country by the end of 2028.
