Default The East River VFR corridor is now history

I don't see how. The NOTAM specifically allows flight within the corridor
as long as they are authorized and under positive control by ATC.


Apparently I am discussing semantics. The corridor used to be 1100 feet
and below, and no flight (exceptions notwithstanding) is now authorized
below 1,100 feet. Additionally, the freedom of flying over the East River
(up to the northern tip of Roosevelt Island) without obtaining a clearance
is no longer permitted.

Those are my two points in support of my interpretation that the
"corridor," as it used to be known, is now closed.
