A
no-fly zone is a territory over which aircraft are not permitted to fly. Such zones are usually set up in a military context, somewhat like a
demilitarized zone in the sky.
Northern Iraq 1992-2003
In 1992, The United Kingdom and the United States intervened in Kurdish-Iraqi dispute in northern
Iraq by establishing a no-fly zone in which Iraqi aircraft were prevented from flying. The intent of the no-fly zone was to prevent possible bombing and chemical attacks against the Kurdish people by the Iraqi regime. The legality of this operation is a subject of debate. Proponents claim that the no-fly zone was implicitly authorized by United Nations Security Council Resolution 688. Critics point out that Resolution 688 does not actually authorize or mention such an operation.
Current No-Fly zones
United States
In the United States, the colloquial phrase "no-fly zone" has no official meaning. What most people would consider a "no-fly zone" is termed a "Prohibited Area" by the
Federal Aviation Administration. These Prohibited Areas are listed in the Federal Register and are depicted on all aeronautical charts.
The following Prohibited Areas are in effect at all times:
- Washington, D.C., National Mall area around White House, United States Capitol (Prohibited Area 56A)
- Washington, D.C., United States Naval Observatory, the home of the Vice President of the United States (Prohibited Area 56B)
- Amarillo, Texas, Pantex nuclear assembly plant (Prohibited Area 47)
- Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota (Prohibited Areas 204, 205, and 206)
- Crawford, Texas, Prairie Chapel Ranch of George W. Bush (Prohibited Area 49)
- Kennebunkport, Maine, site of Bush Compound - (Prohibited Area 67)
- Mount Vernon, Virginia, home of George Washington (to prevent vibrations) (Prohibited Area 73)
- Thurmont, Maryland, site of Presidential retreat Camp David (Prohibited Area 40)
- There are currently numerous State and Territory Air National Guard No Fly Zones over what is believed to be nuclear firing zones belonging to the U.S. Department of Defense in each and every State of the Union, and also in each and every state for air tactical and strategic air-to-ground weapons testing sites.
In addition to areas completely off limits to civil aviation, a variety of other airspace restrictions exist in the United States. Some prominent ones include the the Flight Restriction Zone (FRZ) encompassing all airspace up to within approximately of Ronald Reagan National Airport around Washington, D.C. Flights within this airspace, while not entirely prohibited, are highly restricted. All pilots flying within the FRZ are required to undergo a background check and fingerprinting. An additional area encompassing most of the Baltimore-Washington D.C. metropolitan area requires the filing of a flight plan and communication with air traffic control.
Furthermore, Federal Aviation Regulations (TFRs) are frequently issued around the country. Whenever the President leaves Washington, D.C., a TFR is issued to prohibit flights near his location. TFRs are also issued to ensure a safe environment for firefighting operations in the case of wildfires and for other reasons as necessary. A TFR was quickly issued around the crash site of Cory Lidle's airplane in New York City. Later, a broader TFR was issued to require pilots traveling over the East River to obtain air traffic control clearance. TFRs are issued by a NOTAM (NOTAM), which are available online and by calling a Flight Service Station.
- There is currently a TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) over Disneyland in California and Walt Disney World in Florida, even if it is habitual.
India
- The Taj Mahal, Agra, State of Uttar Pradesh, India
- Sansad Bhavan, Prime Minister's residence, and other important centers in New Delhi.
- The airspace around many Defence and Indian Air Force bases are restricted, although new proposals are suggesting opening them up for civilian aircraft.
Pakistan
- Islamabad - The no-fly zone is specifically along Constitution Avenue in North-east Islamabad, where many important government buildings are located:
Peru
Republic of China (Taiwan)
- The area around the President Hall (總統府), Taipei 101, Taipei.
- Part area of Taiwan Strait
United Kingdom
- Buckingham Palace
- Flights over Whitehall need extensive clearance.
- List of palaces#United Kingdom and politicians' houses and retreats when royals/diplomats are in residence.
- Some Royal Air Force bases and naval installations.
