Terrifying ordeal for the air traffic controllers who lost all radar capabilities for 1.5 minute at the center which controls traffic inbound to Newark airport, one of the US’ busiest. I’ve had the pleasure of working with ex-ATC folks multiple times and you can tell there’s a distinctive equanimity to them — whether it’s the job that attracts a certain breed, or the job that molds them into who they eventually become. https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/06/us/inside-the-multi-day-meltdown-at-newark-airport

Why isn’t anyone talking about the ordeal for the pilots that are in the air? Is it not as bad for them in someway?

For sure, it’s not comfortable flying one of the busiest airspace with no radar separation. There’s always TCAS but that’s for emergency separation
