Talk:2023 FAA system outage

Nobility issue
I'm just wondering if a nation wide ground stop is notable since it's just a NOTAM error. --  B-MIKE - (Talk) 12:21, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

That does not seem to be an accurate cause of the problem.
 * "Unspecified “personnel” were responsible for corrupting the file, which led to the outage of an FAA computer system"  "When the system began having problems Tuesday night, technicians switched to a backup. But because the backup was attempting to access the same damaged data, it also didn’t work, the person said."


 * "The Federal Aviation Administration said a preliminary examination traced the outage to a damaged database file, but the agency is continuing work to pinpoint the cause of the issue."  "About 5 a.m. Wednesday, the FAA conducted a “complete reboot” of the system, Buttigieg said. That attempt at a fix was “not sufficiently validated to feel comfortable” that the issues were totally resolved, Buttigieg said.

“At that point, the move was made to institute a ground stop until FAA could completely validate not only that the NOTAMs were populating correctly, but that they were actually getting out to the aircraft,” Buttigieg said." Malaiya (talk) 02:50, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
