El Paso mayor criticizes FAA over airspace shutdown; called it 'unnecessary decision'

Mayor Renard Johnson of El Paso has expressed disapproval of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) decision to impose and then lift a temporary flight restriction over the city, calling it an "unnecessary decision" that caused "chaos and confusion." Johnson emphasized that such actions should not occur without proper coordination with local authorities, including the city, airport, hospitals, and community leadership. "That failure to communicate is unacceptable," he said. The restriction led to significant disruptions, including the diversion of medical evacuation flights to Las Cruces and the grounding of all aviation operations, including emergency flights. Johnson noted, "This was a major and unnecessary disruption. One that has not occurred since 9/11."
