Looks like whatever repairs FAA did, which took all day, are in place and EWR operations should be resuming soon. United’s operation is going to be a disaster for a day or two.

“GROUNDSTOP CANCELLED. RELEASED ON OR AFTER EDCTS.”

I think EWR might *finally* be nearing operations again, with an Air Canada 787 from YVR inbound as a test. ATC said to expect an approach to runway 4R.

“PHL AREA C IS TAKING AN INBOUND AIRCRAFT TO TEST AUTOMATION. THIS WILL DETERMINE HOW WE PROCEED FROM GROUNDSTOP.”

Coming up, on The Early Edition we're going to talk about the alleged "highjacking" of small plane that prompted a groundstop at YVR yesterday.
Here's the flight path from FlightAware. It originated in Victoria.

We don't even remotely talk about what happened. What was happening. About the fact that, at that point, I don't even think we knew where Bush was.

He had emailed me within hours of the groundstop, and now we were talking about trivia questions, other random stuff.

Just ... a normal interview.

Full groundstop in Philly. We may have more info in 45 minutes.
