Convention (RNC) scheduled for August 30-September 3 in New York City. The
designated National Special Security Event will prompt three Temporary Flight
Restriction (TFR) areas including a 7 nautical mile radius (NMR) around
LaGuardia Airport (LGA); the New York Class B Airspace 20 nm boundary from
(LGA), Kennedy (JFK) and Newark (EWR) airports; and the Morristown, New
