💨 Abstract

A software update prevented a third radar outage in two weeks at New Jersey's Newark Airport. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy criticized the Biden administration for not addressing issues at the Philadelphia air traffic control facility, leading to hundreds of flight cancellations and delays. The FAA restricted traffic and is meeting with airlines to extend these limits. Duffy also requested an investigation into the relocation of Newark air traffic controllers and proposed a multibillion-dollar plan to update the nation's air traffic control system.
