Die Hard 2 - why wouldn't the planes just land at Reagan Airport?

Seems like an obvious solution.

Terrorists would've thrown 30-second fuse grenades in the planes if they tried to escape.

IIRC there is a comment made about National (later Reagan) being iced in and that Dulles was getting there planes too as a result.

Reagan airport runways are not long enough for larger planes however Baltimore and Andrews air base aren't that far away.

But it's a damn movie that needs drama/suspense.

Why didn't someone from the tower just go down to the terminal and call the FAA from a payphone? "Hey... terrorists have taken control of our tower communications. Spread the word!"

Probably my biggest plot hole bugaboo of all time.
