The Puget Sound Navy (which apparently does not think it is the United States Navy), has put up no-fly zones around several of its bases and publicly threatened to shoot down any airplane that enters the TFRs or even comes 'too close,' whatever that is. The only thing comparable that I can think of is in the Middle East, when the Saudi Army got new Patriot missiles they threatened to shoot down any Saudi Air Force plane that overflew one of their installations. |

The Kennebunk,ME TFR has a 10 mile radius prohibited " no fly zone" and a 30
mile restricted radius as well. Within the restricted radius there are provisions to fly on a VFR or IFR flight plan to or from an airport withn the 30 NM zone. No flight training is allowed in the TFR. The stipulations of the TFR are spelled out in the NOTAM. Hank |

have there been TFRs established around
the time of the arts festival? I'm thinking that what you're referring to is a result of the stadium being full, but I'm wondering now about other busy public events in your area. Not to my knowledge. I'll ask the airport manager and if he can add further informaiton, I'll email you or post again. I don't think there's any doubt that it's the fact that if the stadium is full, 110,000 people are there, within about a 150-yard circle. It's possibly, if not probably, the largest number of people in such a small space anywhere along the East coast. A tempting target, I suppose. (Of course, it's possible that it's because Joe Paterno, a national treasure, is there.) ((:-)) And btw, a woman I know has stopped attending football games, out of fear of terrorism. How many people attend the arts festival at any given moment, I don't know, but I doubt it's that many, and they are spread out over half a dozen blocks. Certainly, one of the things I'd like to do with a certificate is to fly to the festival from the Pittsburgh area. Good idea! You'll enjoy it. vince norris |
