Default The East River VFR corridor is now history

Forgive me for not being aware of this, but I fly up in Canada, and in
our CARs (602.14 and 602.15), Canadian regs. very specifically prohibit

the operation of a fixedwing A/C over a built up area at less than 1000

feet above the highest obstacle within 2000 feet horizontally of the
A/C. The exception to this rule is if the A/C is conducting a
take-off, an approach, or landing.

What's the FAA regs. on the matter? Is there some exception in place
for New York's VFR corridors?


Same answer as yesterday.

Sorry Gary:

But you didnt't really answer my question ... what are the regulations
(the FAR #s)? I'm curious and would like to read them (on-line if
possible) to get an understnding of the subtle differences. Also ...
is there a source on-line to read the NOTAM, or whatever, that allows
the exception to the regulation in the corridor. I'd like to read the
wording of that too.

Thanks very much,
