The system "which could only be controlled from the ground would conduct the aircraft posing a problem to the nearest airport whether it liked it or not," according to extracts from next Monday's Der Spiegel released Saturday.
Screw that. Even if the only order you can give is "land at LAX runway 25R", that's quite enough fun to be had. Consider doing to something that just took off from 25L and is just starting its climb, having it circle around and land again. This is sure to make the day of the next few pilots on final approach - you don't need to actually cause a collision in order to cause a a crash (see the jet that crashed on takeoff at JFK a few years ago when it hit turbulence caused by the plane before). And I won'd discuss what happens if you tell something to land at LAX runway 25R when somebody's cleared for takeoff on 7L.....
