Default GA friendly airport in NYC

What an insane system. You don't want me to fly somewhere, at least give
me a clue where and when. Chart the stadiums. At the very least, put a
notam on duats.


I'm with ya'!

I *think* if I had called FSS for an area briefing I would have gotten
it. I prefer duats and the OPA planner, so I usually only call if I
need an a update and I'm not near a computer. Now that football season
has begun, I will ALWAYS call FSS from the airport. The general trend
in every business is to automate as many tasks as possible, as human
interaction is expensive. You'd the FAA (and Lockheed) would want to
help us not call if we can get the info automagically.

You'd think a sports TFR could easily generate a discrete listing on
the FAA TFR site, or even better a NOTAM. Airshow, VIP, etc... TFRs are
NOTAM'd well in advance. It's not like UCONN woke up Saturday morning
and decided to have a football game!

Since ATC knew of the exact TFR, above and beyond the blanket listing
which requires you to know when the events are, some computer system,
somewhere, has the information. I can't understand why it would be so
difficult to link it to duats or make each event pop up on the TFR list.

UCONN's stadium is on the chart, as a closed airstrip. G
