FAA issues nationwide ground stop
The Federal Aviation Administration on Friday issued a rare nationwide ground stop on all departing flights due to "extraordinary circumstances and for reasons of safety."
"The @FAAnews issued a nationwide ground stop for all U.S. airports following a communication issue impacting all Air Route Traffic Control Centers," U.S. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy said in a social media post. "FAA technicians are investigating the issue. We will provide immediate updates as we have them."
The ground stop was posted to the FAA's National Airspace System Status website.
