    at the PNC Bank Arts Center for a fund raiser then back on Marine 1 about 7PM to the WS Heliport and motorcade uptown to the NY Hilton to address the NAACPs 100th anniversary convention. Then back to JFK around 9PM.

    FAA will issue a Temporary Flight Restriction for a VIP visit for tomorrow
    July 16 starting around 1:00 p.m.

    Federal Aviation Administration, Jamaica, NY 11434

    MEDIA ADVISORY

    Local Airspace Restrictions for VIP Visit to New York City



    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is placing a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) on the airspace surrounding New York City to accommodate a VIP visit on Thursday, July 16.



    The restrictions will encompass the New York area Class B airspace. The Class B airspace forms a 20 nautical mile ring around John F. Kennedy International, LaGuardia and Liberty Newark International Airports.



    FAA requests that you mention the restrictions on your news broadcasts as a public service to help make local pilots aware of the restrictions.



    Following are some general guidelines for the TFR, however, all aircraft operators should check FAA’s Notice to Airmen (NOTAMS) frequently for possible changes. All FAA NOTAMS are published on our website at www.faa.gov.



    Only approved law enforcement, military, air ambulance and regularly scheduled commercial passenger and cargo carriers will be allowed to operate within the airspace during the restrictions.



    Other pilots may be able to transit the area but only with approval from the appropriate FAA Air Traffic Control facility.



    All aircraft must be on an active flight plan and transmit a discrete transponder code assigned by FAA air traffic control and must remain in two-way radio communications with ATC.



    The following operations are not authorized within this TFR: flight training, practice instrument approaches, aerobatic flight, glider operations, parachute operations, ultralight, hang gliding, balloon operations, agriculture/crop dusting, animal population control flight operations, banner towing operations, model aircraft operations, model rocketry, and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).

    He's in Manhattan after PNC, so it ends up being a longer trip down to McGuire, Secret Service probably want to keep closer to AF1.

    Nah you're the only one.
    I think one of the reasons he's using JFK is that he wants to visit the runway turtles. :roll:

    They were perceived as a threat and have been eliminated by the Secret Service.

    Due to VIP MOVEMENT, there is a Traffic Management Program in effect for traffic arriving John F Kennedy International Airport, New York, NY (JFK). This is causing some arriving flights to be delayed an average of 49 minutes.

    i do, but i find it futile to argue with the wisdom of the White House and Secret Service...
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I saw the VC-25 for the first time a few months after it was delivered parked under the tower at EWR. I also remember President Clinton coming to South Brunswick in 2000, and he used TTN, although I'm pretty sure he used the C-9 that day. McGuire is much easier to get to the Shore, but I'm sure JFK is in this trip is just because the Secret Service has advanced the place and has all the procedures and choreography ready.

    Offhand, for this week's Presidential trip, I know they used Selfridge for the Michigan stop - did they use Scott or Lambert for the St. Louis part?
