Industry Panel Recommends TFR Improvements
The current TFR format can be confusing and lead to violations, AOPA said.

An industry-led technical committee has submitted 54 recommendations to the FAA to improve the graphical depiction and dissemination of temporary flight restrictions (TFRs). The FAA had tasked the RTCA Tactical Operations Committee with developing the recommendations after the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association highlighted concerns about inconsistencies and errors in the depiction of airspace in the TFRs. AOPA, which co-chaired the TFR review with Jeppesen, said these problems have resulted in a number of airspace violations.
