US FAA grounds all flights due to equipment outage causing communications issues
On November 13, 2026, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a ground stop for all departing flights nationwide due to an "equipment outage" causing communication issues across multiple Air Route Traffic Control Centers. This led to a temporary grounding of all flights originating within the United States, while inbound international flights were managed on a case-by-case basis. The outage coincided with a recent rollout of an AI-powered tool for air traffic controllers, but no direct connection has been confirmed. FAA technicians are actively investigating the problem. This disruption has significant operational impact on US air traffic safety and management.
