Denver International Airport experienced a brief communications outage on May 12, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said on Friday. The incident came within weeks of a similar service disruption at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey.

The air traffic control center in Denver, one of the busiest airports in the world, “experienced a loss of communications for approximately 90 seconds around 1:50 p.m. local time on Monday, May 12, when both transmitters that cover a segment of airspace went down,” the FAA told The Epoch Times.
