Just checking if I missed something. I saw ATC services live till about 10:15PM PST or so today (2/3), but they suddenly died. Did PE have an outage? Just curious.

Hello,
The controller online at that time had an internet outage which caused about a 20 minute period with no ATC. We apologize for any inconvenience this caused.

PE uses the same electrical company as the Superdome in New Orleans.

Ha! No worries. I just got confused for a little while, that's all. Ended up calling KBFL CTAF and landing safely.

Good practice for lost comms.
