Planes are safer when flying than on the ground.
AWACS are likely supplemental to DFW ATC plus controlling the returning military planes.

Applies to a whole bunch of stuff:

1) Most auto accidents are in the parking lot
2) Ships put out to sea prior to storms
3) Submarines are safer submerged then on the surface
4) Those that claim victimhood are more likely to harm themselves

I’m sure there are plenty more

That's the old Carswell AFB. I worked at General Dynamics during the early 1980s (F-111 and F-16, then F-35) which is now the Ft Worth division of Lockheed-Martin. We shared the runway with Carswell - they on the east side and GD on the west. Many memories there.
