Of course the AOPA disagrees and I completely understand the slippery

but let's face it the little plane should have no problem flying under the
TFR and the big planes should have no problem flying over or under it.
Since it looks like we are going to have to deal with UAV in the future we
are going to have to do something and a altitude block tha is reasonable
seems like it might be the best idea.


I don't fly in that area but I don't see the problem. Even I can fly
over it. Did I read a NOTAM properly that states you can enter it
with a squawk code and talking to ATC?

I missed that but you are right. That makes it even less of a problem. Again
the AOPA ought to say this is fine and in the interest of both national
security and flight safety.
