Airplane in NYC is a Cirrus SR20
My mistake, I don't have an NYC sectional in front of me.... I figured
the 500 feet above tallest building in viscinity rule would apply. an a.net user found this- http://www4.passur.com/lga.html Set time to 14:41... Gary Drescher wrote: "EridanMan" wrote in message oups.com... Isn't the restricted floor in the area ~1500 feet? 1500 foot floor, 1800 foot cieling... VFR into IMC anyone? No. Class E in the corridor has a *ceiling* of 1100-1500 feet, not a floor. --Gary |

It was then pointed out that the accident happened 45 minutes prior...
I will now refrain from posting anything until I actually take a moment to fact-check it, sorry EridanMan wrote: My mistake, I don't have an NYC sectional in front of me....

ups.com... I figured the 500 feet above tallest building in viscinity rule would apply. Hm but that's not really the rule. Depending on the nature of the terrain (sparsely, normally, or densely populated), it's either 500' from any structure etc. (not necessarily 500' above, though), 500' AGL, or 1000' above any obstacle that's within 2000' laterally. --Gary |

*looks around guiltily*
I should really have known that. For any who are interested- http://www4.passur.com/jfk.html Set time to 13:04 today. The altitude returns go haywire right around the time that he turned down the east river... I was just reading last night of Electric system problems on the Cirrus... *sigh* Gary Drescher wrote: "EridanMan" wrote in message ups.com...

(Luckily, that's usually easy when flying along a large river.) --Gary |
