Any ideas what the real reason was behind the strange 3 hour FAA outage 11th Jan a few weeks ago? I posted a comment about re FAA computer outage which is longest 3 hour outage since 9/11 on SKs post calling for Northrups resignation.
I fear that SK's prodding may land him in hot water.

market-ticker had an explanation of the FAA outage in this post. search on 'NOTAM', the article is about covid & mandates, NOTAM is mentioned as an example when making a point:
First off, it wasn't a three hour outage. It was much longer. The first hint something was going on was at 2028z (3:28 pm eastern time) on 1/10/23 and it lasted into the next morning. The nationwide ground stop, the first since 9/11, was issued at 1220z (7:20 am eastern time) and was canceled at 1407z (9:07 am eastern time) on 1/11/23. This info is available to the public if you know where to look.
The Phillipines issue was a power issue, not a database issue.
“ Outage was result of unprecedented failure of both primary and secondary power supplies, according to Manila’s airport authority”
Are there random attacks happening (or even systematic?) I wouldn’t be surprised. The government does not hire the best of the best; in fact, the FAA changed hiring rules under Obama to increase “diversity hire” instead of hiring the best candidates. Trump did try and reverse that, but they are now questioning the reversal.
I also have an ex that works in IT for the National Parks Service. I can tell you with certainty they do not hire the best, and once they get tenure, it’s almost impossible to fire them.
My husband is a tower manager. The only info they were given was a file in the NOTAM database was corrupted. It could easily have been sabotage of the database, but there have been no reports of ransom.
True, that or else someone is holding countries hostage. Notice the huge spike in bitcoin (ransom?) price later that day as US Gov may have needed to purchase a lot and quickly. Canada and another country had the same scenario just days apart.
Hacked in my professional opinion. There have been so many “downages” in recent times which I believe were “tests”.....too many coincidences to not be related (I speak with 30+ years in the airline industry........) I’m also acknowledging the age of the industry technology and their redundancy systems---which would seem to make them a prime target imho
Hi Gary,

Everything sinister like 9/11 has been tested as a simulation exercise , anyway to find out?

Does anyone know if this is a good explanation?

OMG
Here is what Tucker said about it

The Canadian NOTAM failure happened on the same day, Tucker is a little off.

Thanks yes I thought Canada outage was at 10:15am same day so hard to think it was also bitcoin ransom.
My husband is a tower manager. The only info they were given was a file in the NOTAM database was corrupted. It could easily have been sabotage of the database, but there have been no reports of ransom.
No one would admit to paying ransom.
Some feel the FAA was held hostage and had to pay ransom in Bitcoin.
If only they had PC Matic this wouldn't have happened!

Bitcoin did jump for no apparent reason when that happened.
Yes, Mike Adams suspected there is a connection between the outage and the jump in Bitcoin.
Ransom payment perhaps?

That sounds like something Blofeld/Dr Evil would do. Here we thought Ian Fleming was making stuff up for interesting fiction novels (007).
