Organizers have canceled the Greater Alabama STEAM Fly-In & Drive-In set for Saturday due to FAA grounding flights nationwide on Friday.

The event was scheduled to bring aviation exhibits, aircraft displays, family activities and interactive experiences.

A statement said the Saturday event was canceled because of the uncertainty caused by the FAA grounding of flights nationwide, which was caused by computer issues.

"We know many families were looking forward to it," the statement said.

Friday's STEAM exhibits were still held with students in grades 3-8 in attendance.

Organizers said they will share information about advance tickets and future events "soon."
