British Airways uses a computer system called FICO (Flight Information and Control of Operations) for its operational control system. FICO is used:
The FICO application was first developed in the early 1970s and is predominantly written using SabreTalk (approximately 2650 segments), with some S390 Assembler (approximately 180 segments). In 2004 a project was started to convert all SabreTalk segments into C using an automatic conversion tool. FICO runs on a TPF mainframe.
