ILS stands for instrument landing system. It's a set of antennae that produce radio signals to guide the aircraft to the runway. The plane must have struck one of those antennae.

briancollinson Stripe refusing access to cards, have a contact so we can avoid a public post?

Ben, I'm very sorry that I missed our call today. I've just sent my cell number through to you via email. You can call me any time.

We're always happy to export card data if people want us to. In Chase's case, there's a bunch of Chase-specific work that they mandate. This is not part of our normal procedure, but we'll figure out something that's workable.

Happy to chat next steps on the phone or via email.
