Planes can move a long distance in as little as five seconds, so losing an aircraft for 20 seconds is not a trivial matter. The reliability and efficiency of these radar systems is vital to the safety of air travel. This is just another example of the FAA cutting corners on safety.

Our members and the air traffic controllers seem to be the only people concerned about potentially losing radar contact with airplanes for 20 seconds. The FAA has continued to overlook this problem and failed to respond adequately for months after the initial radar crashes. The FAA must act immediately to fix this problem.
