FAA Ruining People’s Day

NPR:

An “equipment outage” at Atlanta’s William B. Hartsfield International Airport has forced a “ground stop” there, the Federal Aviation Administration says.

There’s also a “ground stop,” at Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental.

The problems, as often happens with the airline system, are rippling across the nation.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, “a computer glitch shut down most, if not all, departing flights at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and other airports across the country Thursday morning.”

Of course — I’m flying from Dallas back home to Memphis in a few hours. Stupid computers.
