Found this in a NOTAM: what does #4 mean?


NOTAM FDC 4/1184 said:
No pilots may operate an aircraft in the areas covered by this NOTAM (except as described).
Except the flight operations listed below:

All IFR arrivals or departures to/from airports within this TFR.

Approved; law enforcement, fire fighting, military aircraft directly supporting the united states secret service (USSS) and the office of the vice president of the united states, and MEDEVAC/air ambulance flights.

Aircraft operations necessitated for safety or emergency reasons.

Aircraft that receive ATC authorization in consultation with the air traffic security coordinator (ATSC) via the domestic events network(DEN).

How do I can get such authorization?
 
If you dont know what the DEN is - you probably arent eligible. It was the open party line setup between the FAA, the Airlines, and NORAD, and 91K type operators after 9.11.01. Its somewhat secret squirrel in that only certain people at any given airline can be on the DEN.

If you are NBAA, you should have a security or ops rep type who could liaise on your behalf.

If not, you might try a FSDO and see what they suggest...
 
What Doug said -- if you don't know, it ain't you. And since I know you don't have an instrument rating, the IFR option is not available to you.
