I flew to MD last weekend to an airport within the= Washington DC TFR
(By now shouldn't the TFR be renamed? The "T"= stands for temporary and it's been 10 years!)

Had I been based at Port Col= umbus, OSU, Bolton, or Rickenbacker I would have had to land elsewhere and= wait - although commercial flights (you remember, like the planes that ar= e the cause for the current concern) were still allowed in and out.

AOPA member services sent an update on a TFR affecting my home airfield.= It included a link to TFR operations, content as follows:

Requirements for flight in the outer area:

  • Limited to arriving or departing local airfields=20
  • *Transit operations may be authorized=20
  • Must be on active VFR or IFR flight plan=20
  • Squawk discrete code obtained from ATC=20
  • Two-way communication with ATC=20
  • No loitering

Operations not authorized:

My conclusion: It'd be pretty easy to= comply with these rules if I really needed to fly today.
