Rock bands perform impromptu show during flight stoppage in the United States

In the midst of the air chaos that hit the United States this Friday (13), the song was responsible for making the moment of anguish and doubts a little lighter for passengers on a Southwest airline flight, which was on its way to Orlando, but had to postpone the landing. The bands Simple Plan, The Used and Hoobastank and the singer Lolo surprised with a performance over 35 thousand feet high.

On a social network, the Simple Plan group profile shared a recording of the performance of the song “Perfect” in the sky.

"In the midst of a nationwide flight shutdown mandated by the FAA, we transformed this plane into a Simple Plane. Thank you to all our travel friends for singing along."

The groups and the singer are some of the attractions at the Vans Warped Tour traveling festival, which takes place on November 14th and 15th in Orlando, United States.

Suspension of takeoffs

The United States government stated this Saturday (14) that it does not believe in a hacker attack as the cause of the nationwide suspension of takeoffs on Friday (13). According to Transport Secretary Sean Duffy, the main suspicion is a failure during the replacement of copper cables with fiber optics in an air traffic control system.

The statement was made during a press conference at the headquarters of the US Department of Transportation, after the suspension of takeoffs across the country for around four hours. According to Duffy, the systems were back up and running after the maintenance service was isolated. The government is still investigating whether the failure was caused by human error or faulty equipment.
