Final Approach
as I was driving in to work this morning, on the Dulles Toll Road, I saw a little Cessna circling the toll road, near Reston Town Center. I assume he was on a traffic watch, as he kept circling the road. Then I saw him straighten out and continue flying east. I lost sight of him as he went over Tyson's Corner. This is WELL inside the 30 mile radius of National Airport.
How does one get permission to fly that far inside the ADIZ? especially the inner perimeter? Would that be considered a commercial flight, if he were indeed a traffic pilot?
In 2003 I saw something similar, only in Arlington along 66! I was flabbergasted. Only this guy seemed to be going straight along 66, and sure seemed low. It was kinda neat to see him there actually.
