Operations near border

Where do the FARs address operations near the border? I do not plan to
cross the border, but I vaguely remember a note on a chart that said to
contact FSS if operating in the vicinity of the border. I'd like to know
the exact regulatory reference...

Thanks,
Carl

The FARs have no special requirements for operations within the US near an
international border (I assume that's the kind of border you're talking
about). Maybe you're talking about flight within an ADIZ? *Some* of the
border is bounded by that type of airspace, and there is a flight-plan
requirement for flight there.

And IIRC, you have to have the BIG numbers displayed on the aircraft, the
watercraft size doesn't cut it.

I was referring to the US-Mexico border. I pulled out an old chart to
refresh my memory. The note I was thinking about says, "report to FAA radio
prior to entering ADIZ." The chart uses a pretty wide stripe to indicate
the ADIZ. Some airports are even within the ADIZ line. So, if I am going
to be flying along the border looking at the fence, is it a good idea to
contact FAA radio? And, what is FAA radio?

If you are flying within the ADIZ, you need to comply with the requirements
of that airspace. If you are not, then you don't.

Not a regulation but an advisory found in the AIM. If you cross the
border in error you may find yourself being accompanied by an armed
aircraft and forced to land someplace not of your own choosing!

AND, you might receive a bill for that service. F-16's cost about
$7000/hr to operate.

Such as California?
