I really want to take my 150 down to CLT and do touch and gos if nobody is using it.

I got the Duffy reference. I’m scared to ask who the plumber is.

I don’t know what this means but this was in the work group text
“Hearing it’s an L3Harris clock issue with the network that is preventing data from synchronizing”
L3Harris is a telecom contractor that Verizon often subcontracts. They’re the ones who were to blame for the initial EWR radar/frequency outages a couple years ago.
Also I would just like to point out the utter • that this stuff always happens on my day off.

That guy
Only if you’re at a non-towered or not at a satellite airport to C/D/B airports. If you’re under B etc they won’t let you go. (Stuck in SRQ atm)

I am also irritated that the limitless power of crony capitalism isn't being harnessed on my work days.

I’m now in a FBO lounge with a bunch of Corpies stuck here.
I feel so dirty. Need a shower.

Noticed that out of JFK and BOS. Still nothing out of PHL or IAD that I can see. Guessing it's because they're only with BOS center for a little bit before leaving US airspace, but just a wild flippin' guess on my part.
Edit: 1 has left PHL and several IAD as of this edit. Also some flights to Asia and Hawaii are getting out of CA.

They are a LOT more that just a telecom contractor....
I’m sure requiring SICs for the dispose-a-jets solved all the 91 safety issues.
We had pax 5 mins out for one of our planes when shenanigans commenced. I pulled the plug, we’ll try again tomorrow if things have recovered. Our missions aren’t that important and even if they’d started providing IFR services I’m not sure I’d feel comfortable having a crew blast off right now with all the unknowns. Can’t rely on Guard for comms with all the furries blocking it.

if you interrupt one conversation in there about “how you do it at the airlines” they’re going to dunk your head in a toilet and pull your underwear up over your head.I’m now in a FBO lounge with a bunch of Corpies stuck here.
