(iWitness) – The ongoing problems of holes appearing in the runway of Argyle International Airport have resulted in the airport being downgraded temporarily and some flights being cancelled or delayed.
iWitness News has been reporting since February about the issue of the hole appearing in the runway, as quickly as they are patched.
iWitness News was plane spotting at the airport on Saturday evening when the Miami-bound American Airlines flight AA3098, a Boeing 737-823, began taxing out to the runway around 5:24 p.m.
The aircraft then turned around and taxied back to the ramp.
Two pick-up trucks then drove to a section of the runway, and the occupants exited, appeared to be picking up items from the surface and placing them in plastic buckets.
