Yeah, the specific "elements" being whether it's possible to pinch the idea of mission trigger areas to call up the appropriate LSO voice files, and make that usable in an AI situation.

But good info from you, Orion. Thanks. On analysis the idea doesn't sound quite so practical. Ach well, no harm in throwing pebbles in the pond and seeing where the ripples go, eh? :D

Orion:
Well, using a method similar to what the mission uses could be used in an application I suppose.

For example, one could simulate the RectangleAreas that the mission uses by getting the carrier location and doing some math on it, then storing it as a variable.  When the user passes through ± some distance from the point (or doesn't), it could bring up audio or something.

Still, as I said originally, the LSO logic would have to be reprogrammed completely and I don't know who would want to work that all out (basically replicating what the mission does for the LSO, but using SimConnect in a .NET programming language).

Anyways, no problem, and yeah :).  I wouldn't think it would be practical either, unless A LOT of people want it :P.
