FAA issues ground delay for DFW Airport due to staffing issues

from The Dallas Morning News · host The Dallas Morning News

The Federal Aviation Administration on Monday issued a ground delay for flights departing to DFW International Airport due to staffing issues. Flights bound for DFW had an average delay of 18 minutes. A spokesman for DFW Airport said, “The FAA implements air traffic management programs based on its capacity for safe operations. As always, we encourage travelers to check their flight status with their airline.” In other news, kids today already use or have access to artificial intelligence tools. That’s according to Pat Yongpradit, chief academic officer for Code.org, a nonprofit promoting computer science education. What matters, he says, is teaching children how to use AI properly and he is worried schools are falling behind in this regard; the economic impact of automobile and personal loans is larger in Texas than any other state, according to new data; nd the University Interscholastic League isn’t ready to add any new sports, and Monday it signaled that it is content for now with the 14 sports that it sanctions. During the UIL’s legislative council meeting, the state’s governing body for public school athletics denied, rejected or took no action on proposals to add pickleball, boys volleyball, lacrosse and ice hockey as UIL-sanctioned sports.
