Mike Johnson, the speaker of the US House of Representatives, told Fox News that there is no need to investigate the nationwide suspension of flights by the US Aviation Administration, and instead, we should focus on more "investments" in this sector.
"We don't really need to investigate," Johnson said. We need more investment. Some of this equipment dates back to the 1980s. Therefore, they must be updated and this is our responsibility. We will try to do so."
Following the nationwide flight shutdown, Flightover, a flight tracking website, reported that more than 700 domestic, inbound and outbound flights to the US were canceled as of Saturday, November 23.
