US Aircraft Carrier & Light Aircraft in Australian Waters

There is a US Aircraft Carrier due in BNE port tomorrow.


They have Notamed a no fly zone over the BNE River where it will be berthed.


I'm trying to find out how close Light aircraft are able to fly to them in Australian waters, while it sails in via Morton Bay.


The best I found out is 1nm (from an unofficial source). But I would think that is too close.


Anyone point me to any regs, etc on the subject.


The Notam only restricts flying over an approximate 5nm stretch of the BNE River while its docked. (unless prior notice).


Id love to see it from the air. Although it may arrive at any time.
