No planes fell out of Delta's sky. It was the reservation system that crashed; I doubt that the FAA has much to say in that arena.
Exactly. And, the removal of airfare price fixing 38 years ago had no bearing on it either. IJS.
Once the dust settles, we'll know _exactly_ what went wrong at Delta and why. If you're not following Twitter, you should be aware there are already folks trying to make Delta's mainframe the scapegoat.
Many major players had inadequate DRPs and BRPs on 9/11 and the IT industry has learned a lot since that time.
Whatever happened to Delta, let's hope it becomes a "teachable" moment for everyone that isn't overshadowed by finger pointing or jumping on soapboxes by those who wish to espouse some ridiculous political or computer platform ideology...
