The president is supposed to fly into the Philly International Airport soon too, which is directly across the Delaware River from the train derailment. NBC 10 just reported that since the winds are blowing about 5mph from the East, any possible spread of the chemicals would go West toward the airport. As of now, they said this is not affecting plane travel, including the president's arrival. Interesting... |
