[JYO] CAMP DAVID TFR EXPANDS TO 10 NM 2pm 2/7/03 - 4pm 2/9/03

CAMP DAVID TFR EXPANDS TO 10 NM
Pilots flying in the Mid-Atlantic area are cautioned that the temporary 
flight restriction (TFR) area centered on Prohibited Area P-40, the 
presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland, will grow larger this weekend. 
The TFR will extend to a 10-nm radius below 18,000 feet beginning at 2 p.m. 
local today (February 7) and continuing through 4 p.m. local on Sunday, 
February 9. During that time, the notam prohibits practice instrument 
approaches within the TFR. All operations (except military, law enforcement, 
and air ambulance) are prohibited in the 0- to 5-nm ring below 12,500 feet. 
In the 5- to 10-nm ring, 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 <A

notam</A> or <A
