FAA TFR Temporary Flight Restrictions for Newbies
In this video I will discuss the basics of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the crucial importance of Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) for radio control pilots and drone operators. This information will be especially useful for newbie RC operators.
The FAA is responsible for controlled airspace throughout the United States. This can be the normal B, C, D and E airspace shown on charts. Controlled airspace can also include Restricted and Prohibited airspace.
There is another set of controlled FAA airspace called Temporary Flight Restrictions or TFRs. TFRs can pop up in a matter of hours, and the consequences for violating a TFR, as either a full scale or RC/drone pilot, can be severe.
There are five TFR types to include Presidential, Special Event, Stadium, Disaster Area and Space launch. The FAA's B4UFly app is the method to determine where these TFRs are located, to also include FAA NOTAMs (Notice to Airmen).
