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

I almost missed FarCon because of this. I got panicked messages about my international flight and the airline was rebooking us into other airports.

Damn, I’m glad you made it. We take flying for granted but the global air transport system such an intricate clockwork to keep operating 24/7
