- FAA Grounds All US Flights - Was it a "Glitch"? Let Me Tell You What I know With Certainty.

Pilots were forced to ground all flights departing from within the United States on Wednesday due to what Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) called as a "Glitch".
NOTAM, is The FAA’s Notice to Air Missions system that is normally responsible for alerting pilots to hazards along their routes. For a few hours on Wednesday, NOTAM was unable to update or display any vital safety data. Such critical data being missing made flying a higher risk and this resulted in the FAA taking the decision of a total halt in departures across the USA.
