“...Russian or Chinese hackers?...”

My first thought, proving once again that great minds do indeed think alike.

Again JMO this is just a broken down old in need off a rehaul FAA govt run problem.

There was a plane hijacked in Darfur today though.

Seems like the old saying crap happens in clumps when it comes to Airplane crashes/hi jacks and other gliches.

I'm getting word in my office of a DDoS attack being responsible for this. And it isn't just the east coast being hit.

And who wants to bet the g***amned Russians are behind it?

Haven’t some airports reported their entire systems going “black” for minutes at a time? I thought everyone just held their breath until the system came back up.

It was only a matter of time for this to occur.

Most likely a hard drive failed in a circa-mid 80’s computer again....

“And who wants to bet the g***amned Russians are behind it?”

There are plenty of other countries that would like to hit the US by taking down our navigation systems, not just the Russians.

I hate to say it, but CNN is far superior to FOX on this type of story, and it’s being proven right now.

Why should you hate to say it? Fox focuses on entertainment and fluff, not news, and when real news does break they have to then package it in an entertaining way for their fans. (Probably searching for the perfect sounder accompaniment.) Of course they get their butt kicked when news breaks! Meanwhile CNN marshals their ample resources and gets the story at there. Only when ppl stop supporting FNC claptrap will they change.

Yeah, I heard that too...sounded bad.

I feel bad for all those people sitting (stuck) on the tarmacs and we know they don’t let you off once you are on. They could be stuck without toilets, food, water, etc. for hours on end. aggghhh

Katherine Herridge saying this may be like the problem they had last summer with computers in Georgia and Utah.

She says per Homeland Security it’s an FAA problem- no apparent terrorism connection.
