Default The East River VFR corridor is now history

Granted I don't have a chart of the area, but is not allowing traffic
below 1100 ft such a bad thing?


I wasn't necessarily critiquing the action, just pointing out that, based
on my interpretation, the corridor is technically no longer there.

It seems, based on your next sentence,
that it eliminates the VFR corridor, but is that really a problem?
Is ATC that reluctant to clear aircraft through?


Honestly, I don't know, as I have never talked to LaGuardia tower but being
the busy airport that it is, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if they are
less than 100% accommodating.

It will make listening to the LGA tower ATC feed over at LiveATC.net even
more interesting, however.
