Funston shut down 1:10 pm - 7:50 pm, Fri Apr. 21!!!!!

Postby Daniel Pifko » Wed Apr 19, 2006 3:57 pm

Due to a presidential visit, all hang gliding and some other types of flying are shut down this Friday from 1:10 to 7:50 pm in a 30 NM circle around Moffett Field. Funston is just inside 30 NM from Moffett.

Presidential TFR at http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/notams.html#6/5750 .

Please don't fly Funston during this period. You don't want to mess with the Secret Service.

Does anyone know what the FAA/Federal penalties are? I'm sure they're bad, but don't know the specifics.

Don't know, but...

It would probably be worse for the club's future than for any individual.

Although.. W more than likely has the SS (weren't those initials of infamy from WWII?) ..spring-loaded in the shoot-to-kill position!

...it's like a Harry Martin cartoon waiting to happen!!
