Quick note: obviously ACARS Drama started as a fun project for aviation nerds who enjoy this type of thing, but we’ve kinda unintentionally morphed recently into a raw look at the impacts of the US government shut down on air traffic in real time.
We just wanted to take another moment to say, we support air traffic controllers and all other airport staff working hard to keep things moving under these conditions. And of course, the flight crews who are working hard through it all as well.
Y’all deserve to be paid.
