What is the reasoning behind the smaller radius vice presidential TFR?
Source: ------------------------------------------------------------- AOPA ePilot Volume 5, Issue 43 October 24, 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------- PRESIDENTIAL TFR FORECAST Be careful if you'll be flying in Texas next week. Except for a visit to Dallas next Wednesday, October 29, and a trip to San Antonio on Thursday, October 30, President Bush is expected to be at his ranch in Crawford from October 29 through November 3. This schedule is based on AOPA's best information at this time, and could change. Most temporary flight restrictions (TFRs) for presidential travel have been 60 nm in diameter; the vice president gets a smaller radius. Check AOPA Online ( http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/notams.html ) for the latest on these restrictions. Is the VP's TFR radius smaller because the intercepter aircraft employed in policing that TFR are faster? What prevents the presidential TFR from being smaller? Inquiring minds want to know the logic behind the difference in size between the presidential and vice presidential TFRs. |
