I also fly helicopters. I used to be able to fly friends to Cabin
John Bridge, call approach and tell them that I want to take rt 3(or
4, I can't remember now) and fly at 200 AGL along Potomac, continue
past CIA HQ, request left orbit around The White House, continue a
little, request left orbit around The Mall and the Capital building,
fly over Pentagon parking lot over 395 and back to Manassas, VA.
Friends visiting the area loved it as I did.

Yeah, I miss landing at College park and eat at 94th AeroSquadron.
Now I drive there to eat.

We are loosing a little more freedom everyday.
