Old copper wiring behind the US ground stop

US officials said on Saturday that replacing old copper wiring with fibre optic cable in air traffic communications set off Friday's four-hour halt on every takeoff. By Saturday evening more than 5,500 flights were cancelled and 6,900 delayed, per FlightAware. Transport Secretary Sean Duffy said he does not believe it was a cyberattack.

Not yet reported. The outlets have not said when the wiring work will finish, or whether a halt could happen again.
