FAA Sets 18-Day TFR For UN General Assembly

Temporary Flight Restriction In Place Through September 30th

The FAA has set the first of what it says will be several TFRs in New York City beginning September 13th and running through September 30th. The TFRs coincide with the 66th General Session of the United Nations in New York City. The TFR will be in effect from 0800-1700 daily beginning Tuesday.

The TFR will be centered on the LA GUARDIA VOR/DME (LGA) 258 degree radial at 5 nautical miles (Latitude: 40º44'59"N, Longitude: 73º58'08"W). It will encompass a radius of 2 nautical miles and include airspace from the surface up to but not including 7000 feet MSL.
 
All aircraft operations within the 2 NMR area listed above are prohibited except for: approved law enforcement, air ambulance and military aircraft directly supporting the United States Secret Service (USSS). In addition, regularly scheduled commercial passenger and all-cargo carriers operating under one of the following TSA-approved standard security programs/procedures: aircraft operator standard security program (AOSSP), full all-cargo aircraft operator standard security program (FACAOSSP), model security program (MSP), twelve five standard security program (TFSSP) all cargo, or all-cargo international security procedure (ACISP) or those aircraft that have been granted a Department of State diplomatic clearance and are arriving into and/or departing from 14 CFR part 139 airports.

For operations within the TFR, emergency/life saving flight (medical/law enforcement/firefighting) operators must coordinate in advance with the FAA Operational Manager in charge at the New York TRACON at 516-683-2966/2984, to avoid potential delays.

All aircraft must squawk the ATC assigned discrete beacon code continuously while operating within the TFR. In the event of a transponder failure, the pilot must advise ATC, and ATC will provide the most direct course to exit the lateral limits of the TFR.

All aircraft must remain in two-way radio communications with ATC at all times.

Helicopter operations arriving and departing the West 30th Street (JRA) and East 34th Street (6N5) heliports, and sea-plane operations arriving and departing the East 23rd Street seaplane BASE (6N7), are permitted from September 13 through September 30, 2011, provided pilots comply with C and D above. Authorized helicopters/seaplanes must fly ATC assigned ingress/egress routes.

Additional NOTAMS/TFRs may be in effect concurrently during select periods of this event. FAA requires that all aircraft operators check NOTAMS frequently for possible changes to this TFR prior to operations within this region.

No pilots may operate an aircraft in the areas covered by this NOTAM (except as described). 

The New York /N90/ TRACON, phone 516-683-2966/2984, is the coordination facility.
