Dust Storms
Passengers head back to the terminal to wait for a dust storm to lift at Sather Air Base, on the west side of Baghdad International Airport. Aircraft were grounded throughout the day as the dust brought visibility down to less than 1,000 meters. The passengers were brought to the aircraft in hopes that visibility would improve, however conditions deteriorated and stopped air travel around the Baghdad area.
