Thousands of flights across the United States remained cancelled or delayed on Sunday, 2 days after a technical failure forced a nationwide ground stop. More than 5,000 flights were delayed and 2,000 cancelled, according to flight-tracking data. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that normal operations may not return until Monday as aircraft and crews remain out of position. He said a faulty computer router installed in El Dorado, Arkansas, disrupted the air traffic control network. President Donald Trump urged Congress to approve funds to modernise the ageing system. Investigators are still examining the cause of the failure. (PC: BBC)
