This explains why GPS could speed flights, but it doesn't really explain "delays." certainly I can assure you that these advancements will speed flights, but if enacted then the expected flight times will be reduced. Nothing explains why delays will be reduced.

abridged note to adder and Ty- This technology will make flights shorter, but the airlines will then set arrival times earlier. delays won't be reduced. n.b. I am not saying reducing flight times would not be a good thing.

You are mental, right?
