I'm planning a trip from HPN to GAI soon. I've read all the NOTAMs,
and all the other stuff AOPA and others have put out, and I'm still baffled how this is all supposed to work. Some of the material directly contradicts other stuff (AOPA's presentation says you MUST close your ADIZ flight plan, stuff on the KGAI home page says you don't have to close it, for example). As far as I can figure out, all I need to do is call 1-800-WX-BRIEF before I depart HPN and tell them I want to file an "ADIZ flight plan". Then I get flight following and as long as I'm talking to Potomic Approach I'm cool, right? Same deal on the way out; I file with FSS, call Potomic Approach to get a code before I take off, and that's it. Am I missing anything? |

You've got it more or less, but you ABSOLUTELY need to get a discrete squawk, and keep it all the way to the ground. You must NEVER squawk 1200 in the ADIZ, or you WILL be intercepted. You need to keep in contact with Potomac Approach the entire time you're in the ADIZ. On the way out, do NOT change back to 1200 until you are well clear (maybe 5 miles) of the outer limits of the ADIZ, no matter what the controller tells you. --- Jay -- __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www2.ari.net/jmasino ! ! ! http://www.oceancityairport.com http://www.oc-adolfos.com |

And what about closing the ADIZ flight plan? One thing I read stressed that you MUST close your ADIZ flight plan, another thing said you don't have to. Which is it? As far as I remember, it's automatically closed when you land (inside the ADIZ) or leave the outer boundry. Also, I assume if I go IFR all this is a moot point? True. Many people say this is the easiest thing to do. --- Jay -- __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www2.ari.net/jmasino ! ! ! http://www.oceancityairport.com http://www.oc-adolfos.com |
