Data is collected by polling official sources - NATS PIB (UK NOTAMs), FAA NAS Status (US ground stops/GDPs), and the Aviation Weather Center NOTAM API (EU) - every 15 minutes, supplemented by live flight-board monitoring at major UK/EU hubs to catch network-wide flow-control events that never get published as a NOTAM. Each disruption is logged when first detected and closed when it clears. Records are kept permanently as of 9 September 2026; earlier data may be incomplete. See the About page for full source details.
