NEW: Multiple sources tell @CBSNews that an update to the private communications network that connects America's air traffic control system caused the system to reboot. 

When the FAA's telecommunication infrastructure rebooted, it crashed, causing the communications outage. 

The system is operated by L3Harris.

All flights from Europe and Mexico to the US have been forced to cancel.

This is very serious. Air traffic controllers have no idea what’s happening.

Some frequencies work, some don’t. They’re texting each other. No other official comms from the FAA.

HOLY SHIT
This is a really big deal. Specially if this is a cyber attack.

Aviation depends on this.

Issued by the FAA just moments ago, ALL US airports are currently ground stopped. This means NO flights may depart for US airports. Flights already in the air will be allowed to land. This is related to an FAA equipment outage.
