"We can't get a weather forecast, so we're grounding our national fleet". Listen, I am sure this is a rigorous, safety-critical procedure. Several comments already show very well some details about flight plans and contingencies, and so on. So how in the flying fsck are there not multiple service providers for a piece of mission critical data like this? Shouldn't this be something provided by multiple vendors over multiple ISPs and hosted in multiple regions by multiple cloud providers? How much money did they lose in the past two days because they didn't think this could happen?
