A Temporary Flight Restriction is like ... 1. An _invisible_ concrete K-rail barricade instantaneously placed in the path you routinely drive on the highway. 2. Unidentified Robo-Cop traffic violation cameras arbitrarily and instantly placed at road intersections within an area of 3,000 square miles. 3. ... In the recent past, Temporary Flight Restrictions were stationary and invoked nearly exclusively for emergency use, keeping the news media and public at bay over natural disaster and accident sites. The TFR is a logical measure for use in controlling air traffic when there is no way to predict the time of an incident necessitating its use. Today's traveling TFRs that surround governmental travel, TFRs that are automatically activated while stadium events are occurring without a central means for pilots to know the times of the events, etc., are a travesty of bureaucratic dictum that corrupts the orderly design of the National Airspace System. |
