| Moderator  |  Delays ???? Just looking at the current FAA delays and saw this for JFK: "General Departure Delays: Due to EQ NAVCAN, traffic is experiencing Gate Hold and Taxi delays between 1 hour and 31 minutes and 1 hour and 45 minutes in length and increasing. "  What is EQ NAVCAN......?

 | Re: Delays ???? Certainly something to do with Nav Canada. The EQ may mean an equipment outage, not 100% sure. |

| Agent Smith  | Re: Delays ???? I like the "...and increasing..." part. More or less says, "DON'T BOTHER US!"  "MISC" > "MISC REPORTS" > FAM works out handy on the ACARS in this situation, yay!

| Re: Delays ???? Nav Canada computer problem ... unless the jet-stream is very far to the south the majority of traffic crossing the Atlantic will transition Nav Canada airspace. |
