Thanks for putting the word out.  New subject: Are you available to go to an 
annexation meeting tomorrow night and make a brief statement opposing 
residential housing near the airport?  How about anyone else?  I'll give you 
details in the AM, if you can attend.  Thanks.
 
Doug

Subject: [JYO] No VFR permitted within 25 miles of Washington from 7 p.m. to 11 
p.m.01/29/02


FAA to restrict general aviation near D.C. for State of Union address tonight
No VFR permitted within 25 miles of Washington from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Update: Jan. 29 — AOPA has learned that security officials made a last-minute 
decision to prohibit VFR operations within 25 miles of Washington, D.C., during 
President Bush's State of the Union address tonight. At 4:55 p.m., FAA released 
a  <http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/newsitems/2001/010915tfr.html#2/0815> notam 
establishing a temporary flight restriction (TFR) from the surface to FL180 
from 7 p.m. until 11 p.m. EST. (IFR operations will still be permitted in the 
15- to 25-mile radius of Washington.)

"Such short notice on a restriction of this magnitude gives local pilots 
little, if any, opportunity to plan," said AOPA President Phil Boyer. "AOPA is 
very concerned that some pilots won't get word in time to prevent an 
unintentional violation."

Centered on the Washington vortac (DCA), this 25-nautical- mile restriction 
effectively closes 9 airports to VFR traffic and is in addition to the existing 
 <http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/newsitems/2001/010915tfr.html#1/3354-1> TFR that 
prohibits all general aviation operations within 15 statute miles of the 
Washington Monument. At 11 p.m. the airspace will revert back to the existing 
15-mile radius.

Airports that will be closed to VFR traffic tonight include Freeway (W00), 
Tipton (FME), Suburban (W18), Montgomery Co. (GAI), Davis (W50), Dulles 
International (IAD), Lee (ANP), Manassas (HEF), and Maryland (2W5).
