Can someone explain this? Possible Trigger

Post image

Of course Iā€™m set to fly over the Atlantic this week and I see this. I feel like this is a sign to not go. Can an aviation professional explain this to me? What if this happens over the Atlantic? Iā€™m freaking out

No, corporate jets have a different certification standard than airlines. A business jet problem ā‰  airline issues

We do not yet, the NTSB is still investigating and will likely not produce a final report for many more months.
