Somebody just busted the presidential TFR
near Seattle (F-16s escorted the offender back
to Crest Airpark (S36).

If you don't watch TV, always check the NOTAMS / TFRs
before ya fly!


Not good enough. The TFR time was extended by two hours less than five
minutes before the TFR was supposed to expire. Granted, this pilot was not
caught by that, but it is a miracle that several others were not.

The answer is to get rid of the TFRs. It is the only answer.


I didn't see the NOTAM (I wasn't flying that day anyway). Was it centered on
Fort Lewis?
