As the 2024 U.S. Presidential election campaign begins to ramp up, aircraft operators can expect to see more temporary flight restrictions (TFRs) imposed as candidates tour the country on the path to the November polls.
A planned visit to Texas by President Joe Biden has prompted the FAA to post a TFR effective from Wednesday for the Dallas area. General aviation operations will be restricted in a 12-nm TFR ring centered on the CVE117006.0 prohibiting general aviation operations at Addison Airport (KADS), Dallas Executive Airport (KRBD), Dallas Love Field Airport (KDAL), and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (KDFW) from 2:45 p.m. local time tomorrow until 10:15 a.m. on Thursday.
When such TFRs are posted, operators should be aware that the times they are in force can often change at short notice, depending on the situation. The FAA recommends that all aircraft operators check notams frequently for possible changes to TFRs before planning flight operations within those areas.
