FAA TO  ESTABLISH TFR OVER FORT A.P. HILL ON WEDNESDAY
AOPA is sending this message  to advise pilots in and near Fort A.P. Hill, 
Virginia, that the FAA is  expected to issue a notam restricting flight 
in the area during President  Bush's planned visit on Wednesday, July 27.

Based on information from  press reports, the president is scheduled to 
be at Fort A.P. Hill for an  event on Wednesday evening. AOPA anticipates 
that the notam will establish a  large temporary flight restriction (TFR) 
limiting general aviation flight.  Typically, these presidential travel-
related TFRs are 60 nautical miles in  diameter (30-nm radius) and contain 
one or more smaller general aviation  no-fly zones. AOPA will post the 
notam on AOPA Online (  http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/notams.html ) as 
soon as possible after it is  issued. A graphic will also be available.
Pilots should exercise extreme  caution as the TFR may impact ADIZ procedures 
and operations.

Because  TFR airspace frequently changes, AOPA strongly encourages
pilots to obtain a  briefing and CHECK NOTAMS before every flight.
TFR violators will be  intercepted and forced to land.
