.@SecDuffy: "We have one of the most historic coalitions that are pushing the Hill to get the money for modernization, and it's bipartisan... We have unions, whether it's our air traffic controllers, our pilots, our flight attendants. We have the airlines... 60 organizations who often times don't agree on a lot of issues with each other, they all agree on this."
BREAKING: Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says investigators are examining whether a contractor error or a faulty router caused a failure in the nation's air traffic control system.
Duffy says the problem emerged during an upgrade from copper to fiber, when a router being replaced began flooding other routers in the network.
Officials are now working to determine whether the contractor made an installation error or the equipment itself malfunctioned.
.@FAA_Bryan: "We're conflating modernization with this upgrade at this particular facility. We spend $1B/year maintaining and sustaining the existing 1980s TDMI telco network... This is not part of the Peraton-FAA $12.5 billion modernization effort."

.@SecDuffy: I want to thank our air traffic controllers and our pilots—they exhibited amazing performance yesterday. We had 3,500 aircraft in the air and they safely landed all of them. I also want to thank our flight attendants, our ground crews, our airport authorities, and our passengers.
This is what so many of our air traffic control towers are like, literally utilizing technology from the 80s.
A brand-new tower is under construction here now thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts’ $12.5B downpayment for a nationwide ATC overhaul. Congress must fund the rest!
Suomella oli voimassa Neuvostoliiton kanssa hyökkäämättömyyssopimus vuodesta 1932 alkaen. Sopimus oli voimassa yhä marraskuussa 1939, kun Neuvostoliitto lavasti Mainilan laukaukset ja aloitti talvisodan Suomea vastaan.
Se niistä turvatakuista.
