Abstract
We propose a discrete time probabilistic model for predicting the future position of airliners, based on information about their current positions and flight plans. The model is used to derive an algorithm for detecting possible conflicts between aircraft, situations where the aircraft may come closer than a certain distance to one another with high probability.
