There are some gov't actions which I find truly bewildering. Why in Hades does a football GAME ...
...held within the boundaries of an already-populated MULTI-MILLION-person MULTIPLEX ...like the DFW area,
which underlies Class C airspace ..and a PERMANENT PRESIDENTIAL TFR....which is already heavily controlled by ATC ...require additional restrictions?
Does the TSA believe that all those millions of people do not deserve/recieve sufficient ATC oversight already?
Geeesh!!...What a load of beauracracy!!!
NO non-commercial General Aviation flights allowed within the inner circle, and only those on active flight plans squawking descreet codes using most outlying airports. This means you cannot take Aunt Tillie to the DFW GA ramp to connect with her airliner. Wow. THAT'll let SuperBowl fans concentrate on the GAME and make the MetroPlex safe, heh?
