WTF?

I saw the Pres. on TV saying he was going to "Open up Military airspace" to help with the congestion that occurs because Thanksgiving is the busiest flying time of the year.

To that I say "What the fuck?" Outside of Prohibited, and some Restricted airspace (the airspace over the White House is prohibited), the rest of the Military airspace is "owned" by us, the various ATC facilities.

And since we all know he's not going to "Open up" the airspace over the White House, you can bet he's not opening up any of the Prohibited airspace.

So what is the Pres. really going to be doing for the flying public?

Fuck if I know.
