I did not see the flight path or old charts. However, an AOPA lawyer
(that is, a lawyer that is part of the AOPA plan) spoke at a seminar
about FAA enforcement, and told the group that Shaeffer was right in
(or aimed at, I forget which) the old corridor.

Here's the direct link to the flight path superimposed on a Washington
sectional:

The BWI flyway starts near the number 3 on the red line and points SE. The
number 6 is on the western edge of the IAD corridor.

Shaeffer's flight path was not in line with any of the VFR flyways in the DC
area. The only time he was "right in" one of the flyways was between points
5 and 6 as he crossed the IAD flyway.

Either the Washington Post's graphic (drawn up from radar track data) or the
lawyer is wrong. Since neither of the VFR flyways goes over downtown DC and
neither of them point toward downtown, I'm not inclined to believe the
lawyer.
