Flight Restrictions
Posted: Tue Oct 30, 2001 4:01 pm
'To the Type Clubs and other affected users,
Effective Immediately (right now) the FAA has closed the airspace
within 10
miles of all nuclear sites in the US, up to 18,000 feet. That means
that
right now all airports, training flights, ultralights, etc are
grounded
within these areas. This Notam will remain in effect for 7 days.
Watch the EAA web site for further details - notify your members this
immediately. If folks are flying, we recommend they land at an
airport
outside the 10 miles radius.
