The chaos at U.S. airports has extended beyond the TSA checkpoints and into air traffic control towers. Within the last 24 hours, there has been both a plane crash at LaGuardia Airport and flights halted at Newark Airport after a burning smell was reported in one of the air traffic control towers. 

According to CBS News, the plane crash at LaGuardia Airport occurred on Sunday night when an arriving Air Canada flight struck a fire-rescue vehicle that was on the runway.
