A special notice to pilots in the central Maryland area 


==> ATTENTION PILOTS <== 

CAMP DAVID TFR TO EXPAND SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY 
Pilots flying in the Mid-Atlantic area are cautioned that the temporary 
flight restriction (TFR) area centered on Prohibited Area P-40, the 
presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland, will grow larger this 
weekend. The TFR will extend to a 10-nautical-mile radius below 
18,000 feet beginning at 10:30 a.m. local on Saturday, January 20, and 
continuing through 1:15 p.m. local on Monday, January 22. 

See the full text of the notam and a graphic 
( http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/notams.html#7/1280 ). 

The affected landing facility is Mid Atlantic Soaring Center (W73). 

Because TFR airspace frequently changes, AOPA strongly encourages 
pilots to obtain a briefing and CHECK NOTAMS before every flight. 
TFR violators will be intercepted and forced to land.
