Man accused of temporarily disabling primary radar at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport.
What happened Nov. 23 is one of several breaches at Hopkins in recent years.
The feds charged Isaac Woolley after a security breach that temporarily shut down the airport the day before Thanksgiving. Court records show Woolley carjacked a woman, drove to FAA property and turned off power sources before pulling wires from the primary radar shutting it down.While Woolley ran free, the air traffic system was not in significant danger, according to Ohio State University aviation expert Dr. Shawn Pruchnicki.
"When you have airplanes that are close by those airplanes for safety's sake divert those away from the airport to give time the secondary system is up and running,” said Pruchnicki. Cleveland Hopkins Airport wouldn't answer our specific questions citing security reasons, but the police union president recently told us the FAA requires a certain number of officers to be at the airport at all times and those officers have special security clearance.
