That was the first thing that crossed my mind.

And the Feds not talking. When they don’t talk—it’s usually something bad for national security.

“Not the kind of headline you want to see. Flashbacks of 9-11.”

Yeah...could be that Fox overreacted with their initial announcement as I typed it, we’ll have to see...they still don’t know exactly what caused it and it’s hard to tell if they are hyping the story or if it’s really serious.

"Reynolds Foil on the standby. Remember....shiny side out."

Forget that....pray that the Reynolds and Bernoulli numbers hold for those in flight.

Its all up in the air right now.
Seems the new flight plans being made are grounded to the puter not working.

Flight plans already in air are not a issue at this point.

I know everyone balks at CNN but they do and are covering it as breaking news and sticking with it as info come in staying LIVE>

Problem will be is planes on tarmac in the way for planes needing to land.

Jim should consider a Drudge like front page for breaking news! He would literally kill DRUDGE’s hits because of all the eyes Jim has across the country! WHAT SAY YOU JIM?!
