Trump's Syracuse rally Friday and the Alabama-Georgia game Saturday bring presidential drone bans of 30 nautical miles and more

The Syracuse restriction runs from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern on October 9. It is centered on the Syracuse VORTAC's 158 degree radial at 6.2 nautical miles, at 43°04'28"N, 76°07'38"W. The inner core is a 12 nautical mile ring, about 14 statute miles. The outer ring reaches 32 nautical miles, about 37 statute miles, two miles wider than the Tuscaloosa ring. Both run from the surface up to and including 17,999 feet. Inside the inner core, all flights are prohibited except the carve-outs above. In the outer ring, crewed aircraft may arrive at and depart from local airfields on a flight plan with a discrete squawk code, but no one may loiter. Emergency and life-saving flights must coordinate with air traffic control at 315-426-4727 before departing.

The Tuscaloosa restriction runs from 4 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Central on October 10. Its center is on the Brookwood VORTAC's 264 degree radial at 16.2 nautical miles, at 33°12'36"N, 87°34'09"W. The inner core is 10 nautical miles, about 11.5 statute miles, and the outer ring is 30 nautical miles, about 35 statute miles, both from the surface to 17,999 feet. The notice has already been reissued twice: 6/7910 replaces 6/7909 and 6/7911 replaces 6/7906, both listed as time corrections. Emergency flights coordinate with air traffic control at 205-769-3890. The window wraps the whole game. The FAA's standing stadium rule bans drones within 3 nautical miles of an NCAA Division I football game from one hour before the scheduled start to one hour after it ends, so for a 6:30 p.m. kickoff that ring would have started at 5:30 p.m. on its own. As of the morning of October 7, the FAA list showed no separate drone-only 'UAS Public Gathering' notice for Tuscaloosa.
