Title: FAA radar outage ironically on the day the Spacex rocket is to launch
Post by: Littleenki on May 22, 2012, 05:37:32 PM
On tv here is a big indicator of what can go wrong when radar goes down, and ironically, this happened on the day of the new Spacex launch vehicle.
I know many of you are way more informed than I, so does anyone have any input on this?

Not sure how often the radars go out 'round the planet...  If rarely, then, yeah...  Interesting timing.  If not, "just?" a coincidence.
