On May 11th local time, the operation of Newark International Airport in the United States has resumed normal. In the morning of that day, the Federal Aviation Administration of the United States grounded flights to Newark International Airport due to a malfunction of air traffic control equipment, which lasted for approximately 45 minutes. In an interview with NBC, US Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy responded to the recent frequent malfunctions at Newark International Airport, stating that the air traffic control system used at Newark International Airport is very old and may have been in use for 25 to 50 years. The US Congress did not pay timely attention to this issue, and the malfunctions that occurred at Newark International Airport may occur in other parts of the United States. The US government must repair this system to solve the problem.
