Gentlemen! A little respect please! Laurie Dhue is a lady, and deserving of respect. She's one of us. She probably even Freeps in her pajamas.

Try to treat her like your sister. For most of you guys, that's closer than you could ever hope to get to her anyway.

A friend just walked in and said LAX / San Diego / Oakland and Ontario down, possibly other airports.

No link here. FOX just broke in saying it's a commo problem could last for several hours.

That would totally throw air traffic in this country into chaos.

Okay, apart from doing more jokes about Dhue, I'd like to know if anybody's got any idea how a massive communication failure encompasses multiple airports.

Do they mean a communication failure between airports and with planes...do they run over communication lines over the internet...is it based on satellite communication? Of course, I have no idea about the air traffic control system in this country.

Inquiring minds need to know!!!

"...while flights already in the air are being allowed to land."

I'll bet that made those up in the air very happy!
