Obama's Alaska visit

[SkyDog58]

Looks like Obama is visiting Alaska at a very inconvenient time for local operators and will cause major disruptions. Perhaps it is time to petition the FAA to change their VIP TFR policies? Is there really a need for these burdensome restrictions?

While I do not agree with our current white house resident, I will agree that we need to keep our leaders safe.

No matter who the Potus ,they have to be protected.

How many times in the past has the security of the U.S. been compromised when a president has been killed in office?

A VIP TFR is probably noticed by less than 0.05% of the US population. How is that "obvious and obtrusive"?

320,000,000*.0005 = 150,000.

Versus The One.

Let them eat cake.
