@arstechnica "Old equipment at fault..." - call me a naysayer but I think the inverse has a far larger chance of actually resembling the truth.That, and mitigation for the upcoming long weekend.

@arstechnica Was watching the press conference. What a load of excrement. Old equipment is being blamed. Sure, our air traffic control system is antiquated, but it doesn't all fail across the nation at the same time. I can see them closing an airport, but the entire system? The BS is strong with this one.

@arstechnica it is interesting that the Ars article published just before this one was about the FAA expanding the use of so called AI...
