> The FAA ordered all departing U.S. flights to remain grounded on Nov. 13, citing safety concerns amid widespread air traffic control communications problems. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said 22 regional centers were affected. Technicians were investigating the cause; aircraft already airborne did not have to land immediately, and inbound international flights would be handled individually.
