[JYO] CAMP DAVID TFR EXPANDS THIS WEEKEND


CAMP DAVID TFR EXPANDS THIS WEEKEND

Pilots in the Mid-Atlantic area are advised that the temporary flight 
restriction (TFR) area centered on 
Prohibited Area P-40, the presidential retreat at 
Camp David, Maryland, 
will grow larger, beginning Friday and continuing 
through Sunday. 

Pilots flying to the AOPA Fly-In and Open House on Saturday should 
be 
especially aware of the larger restricted area. 

The TFR will extend to a 
10-nm radius below 18,000 feet beginning at 
10:30 a.m. local Friday (June 6) and 
continuing through 4 p.m. local 
on Sunday, June 8. During that time, the notam 
prohibits practice 
instrument approaches within the TFR. All operations 
(except military, 
law enforcement, and air ambulance) are prohibited within 5 nm 
below 
12,500 feet. Between 5 nm and 10 nm, aircraft must be on an active IFR 
or 
VFR flight plan with a discrete transponder code assigned by air 
traffic 
control and must maintain radio contact with ATC. All such 
flights must be for 
ingress, egress, or transit only. No flight training, 
aerobatic, glider, 
parachute, hang gliding, ultralight, aerial 
application, or animal control operations 
are permitted. 

See the notam and a graphic on AOPA Online 
( 
http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/notams.html ). Because this notam is 
subject to change, AOPA advises 
pilots to check with flight 
service for the most current information before 
every flight.
