The air traffic system meltdown at Newark Liberty International Airport last week “was the most dangerous situation you could have,” according to an air traffic controller on duty that day, as the fallout from the outage stretches into a second week.

After experiencing a total radar and radio blackout, air traffic controllers are speaking out about what they believe is a dangerous setup at one of America's busiest airports.

Newark Airport is facing a ninth day of delays and cancellations today, as an air traffic controller shortage continues.
