VIP TFRs and protesters with weapons
Your ultralight and Cessna 152 aren't typically allowed within 10 nm of the
president's aircraft, for presumably security reasons, but this is allowed: "Man carrying assault weapon attends Obama protest" http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090817/...rotesters_guns (I wish the AOPA, EAA, and the rest of the alphabet soup of private aviation organizations had the political clout the NRA had. My guess is it comes down to being free with the donations and having a single narrow focus. The aviation groups have no political focus.) VIP TFRs never made a lot of security sense (to me, anyway.)
