FAA RETRACTS 2002 OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES
NOTAM
The FAA has retracted the 2002 Olympics Winter Games NOTAM that was briefly available on the
FAA web site and was handed out on paper at the NBAA Convention last week in New Orleans.
When re-issued, the new NOTAM likely will reflect that no Special Traffic Management Program
(STMP) will be utilized for airports within the 45-mile Olympic Ring TFR. However, the NOTAM
will specify gateway airports that all Part 91/135 aircraft will have to transit enroute to
any final destination within the 45-mile Olympic TFR. All aircraft will have to schedule a
slot with U.S. Customs at a gateway airport to conduct a Part 108-like security check of aircraft,
aircrew, and passengers at those airports. Also, no operations will be allowed unless the
aircrews and aircraft have gone through the accreditation process of the Utah Olympic Public
Safety Command.
