FAA Restores Key Pilot Communication System After Temporary Outage

The primary NOTAM system is experiencing a temporary outage, but there is currently no impact on the National Airspace System because a backup system is in place.
The FAA is investigating the root cause of the outage and will provide updates as they work to fully restore the system.
