Just so I can’t be accused of the ‘you don’t know how they really do it’ overseas….

It is true that the USA occasionally promulgates e.g. Prohibited Areas that extend beyond US territory and, therefore, bind only US licence holders or US registered aircraft. An example is the recent Falcon 9 launch from Cape Canaveral, which launch precipitated the promulgation of a temporary Prohibited Area that extended beyond US territory and is expressed to bind US licence holders and US registered aircraft (see: TFR ZJS 2/2338).

There are existing Restricted Areas off Cape Canaveral, but they become ‘W’ areas outside US territory.

Some of you may have heard of Cape Canaveral…

Rocket launches are temporary…
