AeroData grounding flights? Are passenger carriers not authorized to input manual weight and balance?

Has to be more than just aerodata.

The Federal Aviation Administration said several airlines experienced issues with AeroData, a program that provides weight-and-balance information that is necessary to grant clearance for takeoff. The FAA said severity varied by airline.


Im guessing no data = no takeoff clearance.

It is not common but does happen where the W&B can’t be downloaded via ACARS. Most airlines have a printed version that allows manual inputs by the crew.

However, this must have been a bigger issue than just W&B
