According to NBC News: FAA is experiencing a computer malfunction at its facility in suburban Atlanta, Georgia. The back up system in Salt Lake City is working to process flight plans which are needed for every aircraft before take-off. Numerous flight delays have been seen at the major airports including Chicago-O'Hare. At 2:45pm MSNBC reported that Chicago-Midway is experiencing no delays. Until this clears up, call your air-carrier before heading out to avoid unnecessary delays at airport terminals. Due to the fact that there is a secondary FAA processing facility, there is no threat to any passengers or planes.
