TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. – The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) will enforce the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) VIP Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) area established this weekend, September 18 - 20, 2026, over Thurmont, Maryland.
General aviation pilots are reminded to check Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) before each flight as required by the FAA and follow outlined TFR procedures.
If required, NORAD aircraft will respond to aircraft violating the TFR and take the necessary action to gain compliance – a scenario we encourage all pilots to avoid.
Pilots can access the most up-to-date information published by the FAA at https://tfr.faa.gov/
