In the meantime any flying could hurt "negotiations" so we cannot fly and I would ask that we don't fly anywhere within the SFRA (30 miles from National). More to come but for now it appears that the field is shut down.
Best advice for sure. It would be even more disturbing if those caught flying when they shouldn't be are AMA members.
