    3. The New Rules of the Road

    4. Photo ID In addition to FAA required pilot documentation Pilot Certificate Medical Certificate TSA now requires you to carry a Government issued photo ID when piloting an aircraft Driver’s License Military ID State Non-driver ID card

    5. FAR 91.139 Emergency Air Traffic Rules If the FAA determines an Air Traffic Emergency exists, or will exist, they have the authority to suspend flight operations in airspace designated as sensitive to national security These determinations may be communicated in one of two primary methods Direct ATC radio communication on appropriate frequencies with aircraft in flight and on the ground Through the use of Notices to Airman (NOTAM’s)

    6. Temporary Flight Restrictions Sure, they were around before 2001, but nothing like today… Pilots must check for TFR’s prior to every single flight Available Online @ tfr.faa.gov but look closely at the disclaimer at the bottom of the page The best coverage comes from speaking to a FSS Briefer within 1 hour of departure time

    7. “Permanent” TFR’s Sporting Events Do not fly within 3 NM or 3,000’ AGL From 1 hour before until 1 hour after Any open air assembly With a seating capacity of 30,000 or more Sensitive Facilities Avoid flying or loitering near or above Power plants Dams Refineries Military installations Industrial complexes

    8. Washington D.C. ADIZ/ SFRA Wanna fly by downtown Minneapolis? No problem Within 60 miles of Washington D.C.? Think again Flight in this part of the country requires a special training course provided Online @ www.faasafety.gov Flight operations in this airspace are highly structured & restrictive

    10. Intercept Procedures If intercepted by a U.S. Military or Law Enforcement aircraft Follow the interceptor’s instructions Contact ATC if able Communicate directly with the interceptor on frequency 121.50 Squawk 7700 unless otherwise directed by ATC

    12. Interception Code Intercepting Aircraft Rocks wings/flashes nav lights = you’ve been intercepted Abruptly breaks away = you may proceed Circles airport, extends landing gear = land here please Intercepted Aircraft Rocks wings & follows = OK, I’ve been intercepted Rocks wings after interceptor breaks away = OK, I’ll go away now Lowers landing gear over airport = I’ll land here now

    13. Specific Restrictions

    14. Scheduled Service Airports Pilots based at these airports must be issued a badge Typically require brief training program Badge must be worn & displayed at all times when in AOA Badge holders responsible for challenging others in AOA without a badge Typically expire in 1 to 2 years Transient pilots exempt But must be escorted by qualified personnel at all times when in the AOA After hours arrivals must be coordinated with local TSA or Airport Manager to allow pilot to exit airport

    16. Citizenship Verification Now required for certain training programs Private & Sport Pilot Initial Instrument rating Initial Multi Engine Rating Each Type Rating Must present U.S. Passport, or Birth Certificate, Social Security Card, and Government issued photo ID Non U.S. Citizens must be approved by TSA

    17. Best Practices

    19. “Lock Up” Lock aircraft doors if left outside Lock hangar doors Think twice about your “hidden” key Don’t leave aircraft keys accessible Consider using a throttle or propeller lock Properly retract and/or secure fuel hoses after refueling Keep airport access gates closed

    20. “Look Out” Get to know the “normal” airport characters Know about your airport’s security measures Cooperate with others concerned with security Say hello to new folks at the airport Don’t be afraid to report suspicious activity Be vigilant, avoid complacency

    21. Suspicious Activity Call 911 if you see criminal activity, or believe your safety is threatened If you witness something that just doesn’t seem right Call 1-866-GA SECURE (427-3287)
