Default NY Hudson River Corridor

Hello, I decided I need to heat the oil up in the RV-10 so we are planning on flying from Orlando to circle the Statue of Liberty then heading home. Wondering if anyone has any local knowledge they would like to share?

Anyone interested or able to take some aerial pictures while I am in the area tomorrow mid day?

Thanks, Tim

There are published procedures for navigating the corridor. Available on line somewhere

I keep a printed and laminated copy in the plane...

You can also take the on-line course and print out a certificate. It will explain your two options for flying the Exclusion in detail.

Take the course: https://www.faasafety.gov/gslac/ALC/...9&preview=true

Either way, it?s easy, just have your head on a swivel, even if on the Skyline route taking to EWR or LGA. Enjoy!

Now is the time to do it. You will have the whole corridor to yourself. I did it last week, not another plane in sight. If you talk with EWR app. and LGA tower they will pretty much let you do what you like.

The trip was a success. Made landings at KLGA, KJFK, KTEB, and KEWR. Flew the Hudson corridor end to end. The controllers were incredibly accommodating. Highly recommend anyone that can, go up and use the airspace while it is empty.
