A firefighter watches as a helicopter lands at a volunteer fire station in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, Thursday, Oct. 3, 2024, in Pensacola, N.C. FEMA, the FAA and North Carolina emergency response agencies have rebutted claims that the Federal Emergency Management Agency or the Federal Aviation Administration were blocking flights with hurricane emergency supplies.
"The FAA’s goal at all times is to ensure safety and help facilitate this critical work," the FAA site, adding that the FAA can issue temporary flight restrictions at the request of local authorities"to ensure safety for aircraft conducting Hurricane Helene rescue and recovery activities." The claims are inaccurate. The FAA can temporarily restrict flights to help keep airspace safe during hurricane response.
