 Simple question.  Can I fly the NY VFR corridor in a 
 transponderless aircraft that meets the exception 
 requirements of 91.215 (no electrical system)?  It looks 
 like the answer is yes, provided I stay low enough (below 
 500' as I turn the Lady).  Any new TFR or other restrictions 
 on this?  Any good intros on doing it (freq's. suggested 
 reporting points, etc.)  Thanks. 
 
Do not get below 500' in that area -- with the amount of boat traffic in the harbor, 
you will find it impossible to maintain the required clearance. In addition, the 500' 
ASL level will contain quite a few helicopters, so I would not venture below 600' in 
any aircraft that has less than excellent visibility. Why do you think you need to 
get that low?
