9月22日(路透社)——美国交通部长肖恩·达菲周二表示,美国政府正在开发一个现代化、韧性更强的空中交通管制系统,不会再出现本周那次导致数千航班停摆的大规模电信中断事故。
“新架构下未来不会再发生此类事件。不会存在单点或双点故障风险,我们可以通过多条线路为所有设施提供电信服务,”达菲在接受福克斯新闻《福克斯和朋友们》节目采访时说道。

周一,由于一台电信交换机故障以及一根光纤光缆被意外切断,美国约9500架航班延误或取消,迫使美国联邦航空管理局对纽约、费城、波士顿和华盛顿的机场实施数小时的航班停飞。
周二的运营基本恢复正常。周一纽瓦克自由国际机场取消了600多个航班,占该机场航班总量的一半以上,这里是美国联合航空公司的一个主要枢纽。截至当日上午10点30分,约有60个航班被取消,另有70个航班延误。
此次事故暴露了美国老旧空中交通管制系统的脆弱性。去年,美国国会拨款125亿美元用于系统升级。

上周发布的一份政府报告显示,电信升级项目的总成本已从47.5亿美元上调至59.1亿美元。美国联邦航空管理局局长布莱恩·贝德福德表示,陈旧的电信铜线应在2027年9月前完全更换完毕。
事故于周一上午9点45分左右爆发,当时工作人员在新泽西州意外切断了美国联邦航空管理局使用的一条电信线路。这迫使主要机场暂停进港航班,而当天恰逢130位世界各国领导人和数十名部长抵达纽约参加联合国大会年度高级别会议。
美国联邦航空管理局停飞了纽约地区三大机场以及费城、华盛顿里根机场和波士顿的进港航班,同时停飞了纽约地区另外两座小型机场的进港航班。问题耗时八小时才完全解决。
此次事故还迫使超过100架航班转降其他机场。

Sept 22 (Reuters) – The US government is developing a modern, resilient air traffic control system that will not experience massive telecom outages like the one that disrupted thousands of flights this week, U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on Tuesday.
“This won’t happen in the future with the new architecture. There’ll be no single or dual points of failure. There’s multiple routes that we can bring telecom into all of our facilities,” Duffy told Fox News’ “Fox and Friends.”

On Monday, about 9,500 U.S. flights were delayed or canceled after the failure of a telecom switch and an accidentally cut fiber optic cable, forcing the Federal Aviation Administration to halt flights for hours to airports in New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Washington.
Operations were largely normal on Tuesday. More than 600 were canceled Monday at Newark Liberty, or more than half the flights at the airport, a major United Airlines hub. As of 10:30 a.m. about 60 flights had been canceled and another 70 delayed.
The incident demonstrated the fragility of the aging US air traffic control system. Last year, Congress awarded $12.5 billion for upgrades.

The price tag for telecommunications upgrades has jumped $4.75 billion to $5.91 billion, a government report last week said. FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford said outdated telecom copper wires should be completely replaced by September 2027.
The issue started around 9:45 a.m. Monday when workers accidentally cut a telecom line in New Jersey used by the FAA. This forced a halt to incoming flights at major airports on the day that 130 world leaders and dozens of ministers were arriving in New York for the annual high-level meeting of the United Nations General Assembly.
The FAA stopped arrivals at all three major New York-area airports as well as Philadelphia, Washington Reagan and Boston and two smaller airports in the New York area. The problems were not fully resolved for eight hours.
The issue also forced the diversion of more than 100 flights to other airports.
