Three 30-mile TFRs Will Ground or Restrict Part 91 and Part 135 Aircraft 
During September 11 Anniversary Events

Updated August 27, 2002

In an August 27 briefing, the FAA gave an overview of temporary flight 
restrictions (TFRs) anticipated during the first anniversary of the September 
11 terrorist acts. TFRs will be in place over Washington, DC, Somerset, PA, 
and New York City at varying times on September 11, 12, 13. Presidential, 
Congressional and foreign dignitary participation in September 11 anniversary 
events largely drive these restrictions.

Part 91 and 135 operations will be prohibited within TFR airspace during 
these restrictions. 

Similarly, Part 91 and Part 135 aircraft located at airports within the TFRs 
will be grounded during these restrictions. 

NBAA anticipates NOTAMs to be issued by the end of the week with specific 
date, times and locations.
