Looks shut until at least inauguration day, and whenever Donald feels like going home I guess.

 

[Maciej]

Damn.

 

[hindsight2020]

Thanks, Trump.

Starting off early!

 

[Norman]

I doubt that was Trump's idea.

where does it say the entire hudson river corridor is closed?

 

[flyingron]

Probably didn't much matter which one got elected. While Chappaqua isn't in the city, it's close enough to throw a TFR over the Hudson up by the Tappan Zee Bridge. Hillary spent a good deal of time down in the city as well.

 

[Morgan3820]

Oh well, small price to pay.

 

[frfly172]

Just going to have to work around it.

 

[SkyDog58]

Remind me never to vote for a candidate who is from or spends a bunch time near where I live.

 

[flyingron]

Hell, with the exception of a year in Colorado and a couple of years in central NJ, I lived my entire life in the DC-BAL metroplex. Welcome to my world. At least I'm in NC (and well away from the coast), now.

I file IFR almost almost every flight and TFRs are not an issue.

I would love to fly the Hudson River corridor.

Yea I was just about to ask the same thing.

Presidential TFRs? Lots of luck with that.

I would love to fly the Hudson River corridor.

So you're going to file that as an IFR flight plan? Lots of luck with that, too.

I do not see that TFR in the corridor.

I fly by the Bush 43s TFRs on a regular basis and do not have a problem.

It is a Surface to 2999, it would be a problem.

I would still love to fly it.

AOPA has a larger depiction - https://contentsharing.net/actions/...ser_id=AOPA_4&group_id=3791779&jobid=35656439

But yeah, not unexpected regardless of the outcome yesterday. And as far as I can tell, this shuts down the corridor completely to transient / sightseeing flights from about the northern tip of Central Park to about halfway between the ESB & WTC. Good luck getting an IFR clearance @ 3000 or above through there.

I heard it's only applicable to Democrats...

Will it then become a 30nm TFR?

 

[mscard88]

Geez it's already a huge Class B.

 

[gprellwitz]

Will it then become a 30nm TFR?

After inauguration day when he goes "home" then yes, it will be a 10/30nm TFR. We get those here in Chicago when Obama comes to Hyde Park. And it would have been pretty much the same had it been Hillary. I guess we just need to start electing Presidents from somewhere that no one flies. At least if they already live in DC there's no additional "TFR" when they go home!

 

[amster105]

Looks like the TFR was updated today. There is now a 6th bullet that reads

All VFR Corridor traffic must remain west of a line from 404750N/0735907W to 404515N/0740055W.

 

[danhagan]

If you were going to get TFR's eliminated ... this would be the president to do it .... just saying.

 

[paflyer]

Yeah, talk about government overreach.
