Elderly man missing from cross-country bus trip after CrowdStrike outage led to flight cancellation

NYPost: An 83-year-old father has been missing for a week after the CrowdStrike outage canceled his flight home, officials say.

Patrick Bailey Sr. was set to fly back to Northern California last Sunday after visiting his sister in Orlando, Fla., when his Delta flight was canceled because of a Crowdstrike computer update that triggered a massive global tech outage July 19, disrupting thousands of flights and wreaking other havoc.

“We really are at a loss to figure out how to find him,” Bailey’s worried son, Patrick Bailey Jr., told WESH in a weekend report. more

  1. Just logged into the site to look at my statement on our Capital One CC and had to verify my ID through a Crowdstrike prompt.

    I recently read that Capital One has closed at least one account based on politics. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/national-news/capital-one-bank-may-be-failing-holding-all-my-money-for-internal-review

    I won’t cancel the card, I just won’t use it. I’ve got a card to take its place coming from https://www.coign.com/

  2. Maybe the FBI could look into the missing man. Family should just tell them that grandpa was at the capitol on Jan 6th. and bragging about peeing in Nancy Pelosi’s coffee cup.
    They’ll have him picked up in no time.

    I do hope he is found unharmed but after a week this may have a very bad ending. Prayers for him and his family.
