Heathrow Airport has resumed limited flights after a fire at a nearby electricity substation caused a major power outage, shutting down operations for most of the day. Chief Executive Thomas Woldbye apologized, calling it "as big as it gets for our airport." British Airways has cleared eight long-haul flights, while Virgin Atlantic expects near-full operations tomorrow. Counter-terrorism police are investigating the fire, but the Met Police reports no signs of foul play. The National Grid has implemented an interim power solution, with Terminal 4 reportedly back online. Passengers are advised to check with airlines before traveling.
