There is another squadron at LGB. Maybe their meeting day is more convenient.

So, yeah... super easy. Just contact approach once airborne, they'll give you a squawk and you'll keep that squawk til you are on the ground. Nothing to it.

Did you do a point to point flight or just do some sightseeing? And did you take off from inside the outer ring?

Flew from KBED to KCQX via KPYM. Cut through the east corner of the TFR and made a full stop (with breakfast!!) at Chatham. We were told not to "linger" in the TFR area. I took off from the outside the outer ring on the way down. Technically KCQX was outside of the outer ring as well, but only by a couple miles. So I immediately got a squawk code on that departure. Although I filed my flight plan on foreflight before leaving, I never opened it with FSS enroute.

I live in California. Every time the president is in town, my home drome is under the outer ring, just outside of the inner ring. The only place I could imagine a presidential TFR being more disruptive to GA is if the president was going into DFW since there are an absurd number of airports in and around Dallas.

wow bossy woman....
Jesus guys I'm going to have to get the hose out when @Cajun_Flyer says something. It seems like every time she puts out anything it takes 1 or 2 posts to have someone comment that she is a woman. I definitely shouldn't speak for her but It would be one thing if she encourages it, but she largely ignores these stupid comments which leads me to believe she probably doesn't appreciate it. Can't someone just shoot the **** about flying and the like without everyone constantly commenting on what sex she is?
Sorry to pick on you two about it but it gets tiring every time she posts something to see people respond to her like a 5th grader. Maybe i'm in the minority but I wouldn't want my wife to have to listen to silly flirty comments if she was on a forum dedicated to a hobby she enjoys. Then again maybe I'm wrong but just how I read it.

Contrarian here:
Last time he came to El Paso (thank god only twice). His TFR essentially blocked all east-west traffic. I was trying to depart to the east as outlined in several messages here through the 30 mile ring. On call up, EP approach would not assign a squawk code and indicated they weren't going to let any traffic through the 10 or 30 mile ring. Tried explaining their own notam to them, but just heard crickets. Asked for clearance through the lower most restricted area at White Sands Missle range, also denied. So I went home for a few hours and departed later, thank god our city isn't the type he would want to overnight in .... which leads to ...
Was in California on vacation a couple of years ago and he was going to arrive Thursday afternoon. I had plans for a Yosemite leg and to meet others there, so I advanced my departure as his TFR was LAX, then Jay Leno's house then San Diego. Timed it perfect and he was gone when I returned a few days later to Fullerton.
I feel for anyone with flying plans to Martha's Vineyard.

To be fair, I think many people around her get referred to by whatever their character is on the board.
Cajun is the girl.
eman is the pervert.
6PC is the handle puller.
PP is the Nigerian prince scam.
James is "better than you."
Denverpilot is the long winded one.
TampicoTrauma has a Tampico he might sell you.
tom-D, weirdjim, and GlennAB know it all.
I'm the debonair millionaire playboy with model looks, radio voice, and Cherokee 140 with a fresh annual.
We all have our roles to play... And we generally ignore things that are in poor taste... unless the humor is too good to pass up.
For the most part, I think everyone here respects Cajun. In fact when it come to the recent incident in another thread, PP got blown out of the water for being a jackhole to Cajun, and it wasn't just white knights or social justice warriors or m'ladies coming out of the woodwork. But there has to be an a knowledgment that some of the dudes around here were raised during a time where what they think is good natured is now sexist and inappropriate.

So everyone else gets a character based on personality or knowledge, but Cajun gets one based solely on her gender. Hmmm.
So those dudes are older, you'd think they would be mature enough to have a reaction OTHER than "OOOOOH SHE HAS BOOBIES!" to her discussing serious topics like TFR procedures.

That's my point. Again Cajun has decided not to entertain these comments so I don't want to keep debating about it but as a person who values this board for both it's knowledge and community, I find it embarrassing for someone to be classified as "the girl." I think we as a group are better than that....

Yes. Because she's literally ONE of TWO females on the boards. If the GUYS all got one based on their gender, there'd be precisely ZERO distinction between the 50 guys all chatting back and forth. TBH I get tired of the "CAJUN IS A GURLLL!!!" thing as much as I get tired of the "PULL THE HANDULLLL!!!" comments every time 6PC says anything... but I do what extinguishes bad behavior in the absence of negative reinforcement... I ignore it. And bitching about it certainly isn't negative reinforcement.

Trust me, I totally get it. I work in a male dominated field and tend to enjoy more male dominated hobbies, so I developed a thick skin long ago. I know I'm "the girl" and people can't help thinking about me that way. As you said, we all classify each other in some way and give each other a hard time accordingly. I mean, as I type this, @eman1200 is probably off looking at weird midget porn website and @SixPapaCharlie is probably off pulling a chute somewhere.
I'm not overly sensitive, my feelings haven't been hurt and I do have a fondness for most of you here (a few of you are totally a-holes... a few elitist pricks, but, even then, there are redeeming qualities
).That said... lately, the comments have been getting a bit out of control. I've been letting them go, but it's getting exhausting. I don't want anyone here watching what they say around me - the world is way too PC as it is, but I also don't want everything I post to be met with comments like the ones above.
(bonus points to anyone who can identify that guy ^^^ and the irony in me posting his picture)

Fair enough. You're the one on the receiving end, so I give more weight to you being annoyed for yourself. I feel like the white knight syndrome, however, is just as sexist.

If my annoyance was an issue, I wouldn't still be here.

Hey man, I hear you on the white knight thing, but I don't think I was being one. Like you agreed with, the constant barrage of "She's a girl" drove me nuts, especially when I noticed she was trying to ignore it. It just made me uncomfortable. I just felt like I had to say something. Anyways she can take of herself, it was merely an observation that it was getting a little ridiculous.
Sorry for the thread derail...

The pull the handle thing is tired.
I roll with it because I like to poke fun at things and hell look at my avatar.
I am going to get that comment but I think it was funny once but by the end of the first week of flying the Cirrus I had heard it 20 times.
Now other people start to notice it.
I posted a pic on FB of sunrise from the plane and got this text from a comic I am friends with about 30 min later:
I also get that Cirrus pilots think about the chute far less than non Cirrus pilots.
If you don't fly it, you associate it with the chute.
To me it is just the plane. The chute is no more to me than your blue knob is to you (Whatever those things do)
I don't react to it because I sort of have it coming but it is the joke that everyone has already heard.

so, just plain stupidity over anything else. no crying about misogyny or sexism or any of that pussification of the country, it was just plain stupid. put it this way, any of u dumsh!ts mess with cajun imma smack u upside the head. and trust me, I have REALLY BIG HANDS. well, that or a really small, well, u know...........uh, anyways, back to midget porn.
ps - there are certain people here who just annoy the sht outta me in just about every thread, and others that are just pricks. I just ignore them. not with the ignore feature, although I'd like to, just ignore.

And, see, and that's my point. I'm not getting mad over any of the comments, I'm just not reacting to them anymore. Much like the chute comments have gotten tired for you, the "OMG WOMAN!!!" comments have gotten tired for me. I'm not going to cause a fuss, but don't expect me to engage. At the end of the day, all is good.

Yeah, my bikini post was less than the most tasteful one that I could have posted and I want to apologize.
I am sorry Cajun.
With her costume change cross country post in mind, I did a quick google of "stars and stripes" costumes to post for her presidential TFR flight and the bikini pic was one of several that popped up. I quickly copied it and pasted it into my post without really thinking. I'm sure I'm the first one here to make a post without fully thinking. More due to a dirty old man mindset and wanting to have some fun then being misogynistic or wanting to be hurtful.
That being said, I do see more people running to Cajun's defense as well as other female members far more often than that of male members who get poked fun at. Those who do this may want to reflect and see if they are doing so because they view women as fragile creatures who need to be defended as they are incapable of doing it themselves. I doubt that is true of Cajun or any other lady on here so your frail attempts at chivalry are unnecessary and possibly even more insulting than the somewhat inappropriate jokes that are made.
Again, I apologize to Cajun.
Those of you trying to prove your manhood... LOL.

I prove my manhood the old fashioned way.
By denigrating those with safety equipment in their planes that are more expensive than anything I can hope to afford in a lame attempt to make me feel better about myself since I feel the need to compare myself to others and can't be happy with what I have.
