The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said on Friday that air controllers at the Newark airport again lost contact with airplanes for over a minute as the facility continues to be plagued by such issues.
"There was a telecommunications outage that impacted communications and radar display at Philadelphia TRACON Area C, which guides aircraft in and out of Newark Liberty International Airport airspace. The outage occurred around 3:55 a.m. on Friday, May 9, and lasted approximately 90 seconds," the FAA said in a social media publication.
