White House officials will hold a press conference on the FAA’s nationwide ground stop on Friday evening.
The FAA ordered all US airports to ground stop. No flights may depart, and flights already in the air will be allowed to land.
Earlier Friday, DHS Chief Markwayne Mullin said there was a ‘telecommunications outage throughout the FAA.’
“There is no indication as of yet that this was a nefarious attack,” Mullin said as he assured that every flight has been accounted for.
President Trump told Fox News reporter Peter Doocy that the ground stop does not seem to be a cyberattack.
NEW- I’ve spoken to President Trump. He says the ground stop doesn’t seem to be a cyber attack, and that nobody is taking credit for a cyber attack. Instead, this could be a result of a system that relies on some old broken stuff, that he says he’s tried to upgrade

The national ground stop was lifted Friday evening.
National Ground stop has been lifted. Expect a whole lot of residual delays/cancelations and some start and stops along the way tonight and tomorrow.
