Topic:
TFRs: Awareness and Avoidance
Speaker(s):
William J Doyle Jr, CFI A&I, AGI and IGI
Brief Description:
At this seminar we will look at Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs). We will discuss what notifications and alerts are available to pilots as well as how pilots can sign up for them. We will look at recent TFRs, such as the Papal TFR, the Presidential TFR, and the Vice-Presidential TFR. We will use interactive scenarios to illustrate how or whether pilots should fly into and out of area airports such as Doylestown, Northeast Philadelphia, and the Flying W during these TFRs. We will also look at flight planning strategies and in-flight protocols for operating near TFRs. Lastly, we will look at task management and in-flight “Gotchas” with avionics and Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs). There will also be a breakfast prior the the seminar starting at 8:30, please see additional information and register today!
