Anyone with more details ?

24th April 2017?

No. Format YY/MM/DD

And maybe an overnight ‘dead easy’ software update wasn’t as ‘dead easy’ as hoped!

Lifted. Lasted about an hour. As I recall, this is not the first ASA ground stop due to sketchy W&B software.

Alaska Air resumed departures around noon after an hour-long ground stop for all departure flights nationwide. According to The Wall Street Journal the ground stop was due to a "technology problem that cropped up during a system upgrade."

Referencing my post #4, on 1/26/23, Alaska Airlines imposed a 22 minute ground stop due to faulty aircraft performance software. The faulty software resulted in two 737 tail strikes departing KSEA for Hawaii.

Whose faulty software did that?

At the time of the 2023 tail strike events:

“Alaska Airlines uses software from a company named DynamicSource to make aircraft performance calculations.”
