(Opinion) Major airline CEOs warn of ‘catastrophic’ aviation crisis planes could be grounded PERMANENTLY:

The United States of America is facing a dire situation with the introduction of AT&T and Verizon-driven 5G service to airports, according to a group called Airlines for America (A4A).

"To be blunt, the nation’s commerce will grind to a halt,” read a  recent letter from Airline executives who are desperate to get information to lawmakers and decision-makers.  According to the group’s website, the group has predicted and warned about the upcoming problems for close to one year.

Officials with the FAA and airplane manufacturer Boeing have warned that there is potential for interference with vital aircraft instruments that operate in the 4.2 to 4.4 GHz range, such as radio altimeters that tell pilots their altitude as they fly in low visibility, ” The Daily Mail reported.

The problem is that the 5G service is not compatible with the technology on all of the plans, resulting in potentially deadly consequences- especially with the winter weather- and could possibly cause some planes to be ineffective altogether, costing a massive amount of financial burdens that airlines are not able to withstand.

The fear is that false altitude readings could confuse pilots as they approach the runway in poor visibility conditions, with potentially disastrous results.

Airline CEO Says 5G Fiasco Most delinquent mess he’s seen in his entire career:

AT&T and Verizon are using stronger 5G frequencies from their towers than countries with a successful 5G rollout. It has caused travel chaos, with airlines canceling some flights as a result of safety concerns and then rushing to restore them after AT&T and Verizon agreed at the last minute not to upgrade the airport towers.

Following Tuesday’s announcement, Emirates canceled all flights to nine US cities, and some flights were later brought back to schedule, but not all. There are dozens of flights still on hold, including those operated by Japan Airlines, All Nippon Airways, British Airways, Air India, and Delta.

‘I need to be as candid as I normally am, and say this is one of the most delinquent, utterly irresponsible issues, subjects I’ve seen in my aviation career because it involves organs of government, manufacturers, science, etc.’

Airlines executives, including representatives from American Airlines, JetBlue, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, FedEx Express and UPS, wrote a letter to the government urging it to defer the launch of 5G.

The airlines were only made aware on Monday of the risk posed by the signals, he said.

‘We were aware of a 5G issue. Okay. We are aware that everybody is trying to get 5G rolled out after all it’s the super-cool future of whatever it may be communication and information flow.'  ‘We were not aware that the power of the antennas in the United States have been doubled compared to what’s going on elsewhere.'  ‘We were not aware that the antenna themselves have been put into a vertical position rather than a slight slanting position, which then taken together compromise not only the radio altimeter systems but the flight control systems on the fly by wire aircraft.'

Since the Boeing 777 flights were halted, the airlines – which are based in different time zones and heard the news at different times throughout the night – are scrambling to resume Boeing 777 flights.

Several airlines, including British Airways, Emirates, All Nippon and Japan Airlines, canceled or diverted dozens of flights to and from the United States.  Air India canceled flights on Tuesday and has not yet found alternative transportation for passengers.

The result is a growing headache at airports where cancellations, staff shortages, and a lack of planes at the right time and place aggravate the chaos.

Enhancing chaos daily, it appears.  The devil is gleefully in the details.

A Reuters article I just read claimed, "U.S. airlines have warned the directives could disrupt up to 4% of daily flights."

4%????  Intentional Covid was a far more disruptive chaos driver to the airline industry than part of the 5G spectrum problems near airports.  Just travel shutdowns, passenger masks and pilots' shots by far eclipse this FAA wrinkle.

The devil is sure using that great huge trident he carries to do a lot of stirring, doesn't he?  NWO is inbred with USGovt...  Kill, steal, and destroy.  Yeah!

Double double toil and trouble.  Fire burn and cauldron bubble.  (that sounds somehow familiar...)
