TFRs and NOTAMs #
What are TFRs and NOTAMs? #
A Temporary Flight Restriction, referred to as a TFR, is a block of airspace that has had restrictions put in place. In real life this could be due to numerous factors such as:
- movement of government officials
- natural disasters
- or other special events
A NOTAM (or Notice to Airmen), is a notice that has been put in place to ensure pilots are aware of potential hazards along their route, this can include at their departure, destination and/or alternate(s).
Within Infinite Flight, TFRs/NOTAMs can be found on the Expert Server and are depicted by red/orange circles (which can vary in size). They are used for airports that have permanent restrictions or temporarily for special events. The different colors and their meaning is shown below:
| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Red | Active |
| Orange | Inactive |

How to comply with TFRs/NOTAMs #
To avoid violations being issued due to not complying with active TFRs/NOTAMs, the following steps are recommended:
Step 1
: Once you have filed your flight plan (if applicable), check the route on your map or mini map for any red/orange circles
Step 2
: If you will be passing through/coming close to any of these TFRs/NOTAMs, or your destination(s) have TFRs/NOTAMs, then tap on (or close to) the circle on your map/mini map
Step 3
: Select the TFR/NOTAM from the dropdown list
Step 4
: The information associated with that TFR/NOTAM will be displayed, check to see if it is active, or will be active when you are flying near to it
Tip
: Once TFRs/NOTAMs become active, all aircraft must comply with them, regardless of when your flight was started
Step 5
: If it is or will be active, and you will be flying through it (i.e. within the floor to ceiling range), then ensure that you fully comply with the TFR/NOTAM before departure
Tip
: If you are outside of the radius or altitude of the active TFR/NOTAM, then the TFR/NOTAM does not apply to you (e.g. if the TFR/NOTAM has a ceiling of 10,000ft and you are higher than this, you can ignore the TFR/NOTAM)
Step 6
: If you are unable to comply with the TFR/NOTAM, then change your routing, altitude and/or destination as appropriate to avoid being issued with a violation
Step 7
: We also recommend checking the IFC for upcoming events that may have temporary TFRs/NOTAMs added, as these may not be displayed on your map or mini map yet
