Strong earthquake damages Seattle airports.
A large crack is seen in the main runway at Seattle's Boeing Field - King County Airport. He said six of eight structural supports on the main tower were damaged, and all but one of its windows were shattered. Boeing Field in south Seattle also closed because of damage to the runway. Once Sea-Tac reopened, only 20 planes were allowed to take off each hour, Kenitzer said. A 20-mile gap between planes landing and taking off was required.
