Not at this time. It's gone back to the way it was before...check the
notes on
the NYC terminal area chart for the procedure and CTAF frequency.

It's only of us who live and toil here in the vicinity of the nation's
capital who are
getting regularly **** upon by Homeland Security.

Nope. It's recommended that you listen in and announce position on the common
frequencies, however. That's 123.075 for the East River and 123.05 for the
Hudson.

Some people think they hear a call to the priesthood when what they really
hear is a tiny voice whispering "It's indoor work with no heavy lifting".

I have never flown in Washington DC, NY airspace. I fly out of SE Florida.
How tough is it to get flight following in that airspace.
Even here ( Miami-Orlando) they will not give you flight following when they
are busy. For long trips I usually file IFR.

In the NYC area, it depends on what sector you're in and how
busy it is... If they're not busy, they'll usually deal with you...

George, have you ever flown up the East River? I have enjoyed the Hudson
river VFR corridor a few times over the last year, but I have not explored
the other side. It looks to me that there really isn't one there (with La
Guardia at the north end), from what I remember of the terminal chart.

Well, I am not George, but I will answer anyway. Yes, I have flown up the East
River many times. It's much narrower than the Hudson, so you have to steep
turn to reverse course, but it's do-able. As always, self-announce and watch
the helicopters.

Please do!

Where is the northern turn-around point? I imagine that the north end is
capped due to La Guardia's airspace, correct? Oh, and what's the upper
altitude limit? 1,100 feet, too?

Thanks for the info! I look forward to checking out that side some day
soon.
