FAA Status map says Ground Stop due to “Other/Security”
#Breaking: All flights grounded at Reagan Airport. Unclear yet if it is related to Navy Yard shootings. @wusa9 #NavyYardShooting— Fred D'Ambrosi (@9NewsDirector) September 16, 2013
Perhaps they suspect the shooter has a Benghazi import on his person.
U.S. Capitol Police confirmed enhanced security at the Capitol, but no immediate threat.
Reports began circulating around 9:30 a.m. that the suspect was down, but D.C. police said the suspect is still on the loose and hiding between floors.
Stopping DCA traffic would give the law enforcement helos more flex regarding flight locations etc
Due to OTHER / SECURITY, there is a Traffic Management Program in effect for traffic arriving Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Washington, DC (DCA).
General Departure Delays: Because a traffic management program is delaying some arriving flights, departing flight schedules may be affected.
General Arrival Delays: Arrival traffic is experiencing airborne delays of 15 minutes or less.
Because of the Navy Yard, even though it’s clear across a very busy town.
Back in the real world news.....
Radio news says additional airport in NYC closed.
Down river from the Naval Yard but could expose a plane to an idiot ground fire and I imagine there is lots of helo activity as well.
shelter in place, dhimmis...
Live activity Washington D.C. police, fire, EMS:

Lots of activity as of 10:00 AM eastern time.
The first responders have called in their “mass casualty group” of responders. This does NOT mean there are mass casualties.
What about Dulles?
Pinging those who might be interested
But the authorities won’t call it terrorism. I wonder if it’s possible the perps have some manpads from Libya?
Just saw a friend’s post...a pic of Reagan Airport on social media. Reported a fire at/around gate 9 about 30 minutes ago.
