This might be a silly question, but is that a NOTAM saying that NOTAM system is down? How does it get out?

The website and the system that gets it out to all the planes are related but not the same.

With all the hate in HN regarding SOA, here’s a great example of adding resilience by separating concerns at a systems level.

As I understand it there's a hotline and periodic teleconferences and webinars today that for sure everyone at the airlines is participating it.

NOTAM is a notice to alert aircraft pilots of potential hazards along a flight route...

Command control can see that NOTAM system is out and publish advisory. (Not via NOTAM system)

Reminds me of that screenshot of a windows popup unable to display an error.

I will never forget trying to set up a printer on a linux desktop 20+ years ago: tried to print a diagnostic/test page. All that printed was a single line of text: "Unable to connect to printer."
