With all aircraft
ordered grounded by the Federal Aviation Administration in light of Tuesday's
terrorist attacks, there wasn't much to be done at Falcon Field in Peachtree
City.
Only one aircraft
from out of town was stuck at Falcon Field Tuesday morning, said airport
manager Jim Savage. That aircraft is based out of the nearby DeKalb-Peachtree
Airport.
The word from
the FAA was that the grounding order would last indefinitely, he added.
"They
don't want to go beyond that because, who knows?" Savage said.
Savage said
in the short time after the attacks hit the media, the number of aircraft
flying in the metro Atlanta area shrank to about 16. The normal amount
of aircraft nears 100 generally, he said.
"I'd guess
there are probably none out there now," Savage said after 1:30 p.m.
"We'll
just have to sit and wait and see what happens."
