imageMassive flight delays are taking place across the United States today, caused by computer problems at a Federal Aviation Administration facility, CNN.com reports. The administration said there are no radar outages, and it has remained in contact with all planes. Only flights waiting to take off are being affected. “This is really not a safety issue, this is an aggravation issue,” said CNN aviation expert Miles O’Brien.
