What is the reasoning behind the smaller radius vice presidential TFR?

If the TFR size is not set because of rational criteria, it

If you start eliminating security measures based on rational criteria,
about 95% of them will have to go out the window.

Thanks for the chuckle, but what happens if Jr is bumped off first?
Does Cheney's TFR automatically expand?


That's part of the Single Integrated TFR Calculation Plan (SITFRC), and
it is highly classified.

Is it just arbitrary, or an absurd "mine is bigger than yours" thing?


I think it's the latter. The prez is arguably more important than the second
fiddle, so he gets a bigger TFR.

Perhaps this is a good question to pose to AOPA.


Maybe, but *don't*, for bog's sake, pose the question to the SS. They'll start
setting up 30 mile TFRs for every politico down to dog-catchers.

Yep. The TFR goes with the position.

Inquiring minds want to know the logic behind the difference in size
between the presidential and vice presidential TFRs.


It is very important to keep all aircraft away from Bush. If he were to
hear one, he may run outside to look for it - and if it happened to be
raining, he could drown.

I got two plonks out of this thread. Ron took 551 posts down the
toilet with him! Another took 220. There does seem to be a connection
between being obnoxious and being prolific. r.a.p. will be a lot
easier to read henceforth.

all the best -- Dan Ford

Posting this to Dan Ford under Dan Luke because the original is off my
server. Got it from Google-Groups.

I've already had my posts called inane today by Larry D, I do hope I'm not
also on your obnoxious list. It's been a baaaaad day :-(

I've been *plonked* twice (that I know of) can't remember by who though.

This past post was sent as a follow up to yours because yours was the only
one still visible to me.

Now all we need is for Ron to weigh in. It'll be like one of those sci-fi
situations where there is much activity just out of a person's perceptual
range. (Twilight Zone, Star Trek, etc)

I just hope *I'm* not on the other Dan's "obnoxious" list. g
