Glad we spent all those Billion$ on “Next Gen”. Obviously, somebody got something out of it.

Observed a mega multi-lane ‘Round-About’ during a manufacture’s shift change. Hundreds of people leaving and arriving through the Round-About at the same time. They do it everyday. Watching all that traffic was like it was choreographed. The Round-About concept works as long as your focus is on filling the slot at the same speed as the circling traffic.

Circle the city in a counter-clockwise designated track and enter/depart the circle in the sky at designated locations. Not much different then the basic airport left hand traffic pattern today, but much larger. When entering a busy training airport traffic pattern with a dozen planes doing touch and go’s you enter 45 degree or straight in downwind. Other options: straight in crosswind, base or final. Depart basically the same way. When entering from the center, fly under the traffic pattern leg and climb in to the circling aircraft. Just like an airport, once the traffic becomes too busy flight plans will be requested and accepted. Computer A.I. technology today could be releasing these flight plans.
