All flights in the United States are grounded until further notice “due to extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety,” the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.
The FAA issued the ground stop “following a communication issue impacting all Air Route Traffic Control Centers,” Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy said in a social media post. “FAA technicians are investigating the issue.”
Air Route Traffic Control Centers are regional facilities that handle flights going across the country.
“Traffic should remain ground stopped until further notice,” the FAA said in an advisory. “International flights will be managed on a case by case basis.”
How did Flavor Flave seem to know before everybody else?
He got that big clock around his neck, reminded him it was time for the outage.
He requested it, and FAA had no choice but to shut things down
In addition to his other duties, Flavor Flav is also official timekeeper for the FAA. He keeps all the clocks synced in the nation’s air traffic control towers. He just had a sick day today.
What else do you think the clock was for?
At work we use rubidium-87 clocks synced against GPS for highly accurate time keeping. GPS satellites sync their time against Flav.
The clock on his chest proves he don’t fess.
He’s clocker rockin, rockin with the best.
He is the time master and thus in charge of scheduling, is he not? That’s why he has that giant clock around his neck.
Yes. MC Hammer only got his catchphrase via Flav’s blessing
He saw the FAA announce the rollout of a new system to replace the old reliable one that was created by people who knew wtf they were doing.
The FAA tweet that said “goodbye to paper” basically gave everyone who ever worked in government IT a massive heads-up
Always does shit right after markets close on Fridays. Such a corrupt ghoul.
I looked it up. The SMART AI used is from a private company. I admit I wanted to see their stocks tank on Monday… but alas.
Check his Kalshi bets.
Because he’s in the Pacific Time Zone?
The post was 20:51 UTC. According to Wikipedia and the FAA database itself, the advisory wasn’t issued until 20:54 UTC.
So I should ask him to give me some lottery numbers? 😊
What specific time zone?
Or his device was… I assume you’re talking about his post being time stamped three hours before it happened.
