The "Allow Background Playback" setting only appears in the Android version of the LiveATC app.  So, if you have that setting and that box is checked, then it might be necessary to uninstall the app and then reinstall the app.  It's possible that there is another app that might be interfering with that setting.  Hopefully reinstalling the LiveATC app will take care of that problem.

CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — A small plane crash north of Cedar Hill Cemetery temporarily shut down traffic in Castle Rock Monday evening, according to officers with the Castle Rock Police Department.

No one was injured in the crash and there were no additional hazards in the area after the aircraft, which appeared to be a Piper fixed wing, single-engine plane, crashed just before 6:15 p.m. near the intersection of Wolfensberger Road and Prairie Hawk Drive.

The aircraft was towed, and the roads were reopened by 8:30 p.m. Castle Rock Fire Chief Norris Croom told Denver7 the plane had three passengers and took off from Centennial Airport.  According to the pilot, Croom said, the plane lost power after takeoff and the pilot realized he could not make it back to Centennial. The pilot then saw a mostly clear street and landed the plane on Prairie Hawk Drive.

Croom said the plane hit the back of a car on the street, causing some damage. But the two car passengers did not need medical attention and were able to drive away from the scene, Croom said.  The plane crash landed between a residential neighborhood on one side of the street and a power station on the other.

"Normally what we see out of the movies... is a much worse situation," Croom said. "And tonight, we're very fortunate."

Aviation Accidents/Incidents / Re: UPS MD-11 Crashes on Takeoff From KSDF

« Last post by RonR on November 09, 2025, 18:46:57 UTC »

Update: there have been some questions raised in the aviation community that were asking why couldn't this plane climb out even with the loss of the #1 engine.  The MD-11 should have been able to climb on two engines despite the loss of the engine and the fire on the left wing.  This YouTube video seems to present a very plausible reason why they couldn't climb.  A close examination of the video from the takeoff roll suggests there was a compressor stall on the #3 engine as they were trying to rotate.  You can see a number of flashes that seem to support this possibility.  Captain Steve explains it all in detail and it certainly makes sense:



We'll just have to wait and see what the NTSB finds out.

Listener Forum / Re: Live ATC net servers change?

« Last post by dave on November 09, 2025, 13:24:09 UTC »

After further investigation with the OP, this is the situation...

We recently updated our SSL/TLS certificates to comply with new security and certificate authority requirements. The new certificates use a newer root certificate that older iPads (on older iOS versions) and other legacy devices don’t recognize or trust. All internet web sites will have to do this.

Because there are older devices that can no longer be updated, they can’t get the newer SSL security roots it needs to connect to our servers. That’s why some apps or devices with ancient browsers stopped working. Unfortunately, there isn’t a safe way for us to downgrade security globally just for a handful of older devices.

Hope this helps explain things. It's an internet-wide issue and the overall situation with supporting legacy devices will become worse, not better.
