Abstract:
This information collection is required for compliance with the final rule that codifies special flight rules and airspace and flight restrictions for certain operations in the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area.
Emergency Justfication:
We are asking for Emergency Approval because the White House Homeland Security Counsel has directed the FAA to publish this final rule before January 20, 2009. The rule will require pilots operating under visual flight rules inside the Washington, DC airspace to follow special flight rules-- The "linchpin" of the requirements is that those VFR pilots operating in DC airspace are required to file flight plans so that their intentions are known to air traffic control and law enforcement agencies. Pilots who enter the special flight rules area without filing a flight plan risk being intercepted and possibly shot down. Because of these heightened security concerns and the importance of collecting the required flight plans, it is imperitive that we obtain OMB's approval of the information collection requirements and publish the Control Number in the final rule.
