Aircraft operators are advised to avoid the airspace bound by The New York Class Bravo 1500 feet and below due to extensive disaster relief, recovery and reconstitution efforts, search and rescue, law enforcement and medivac operations being conducted in and around The New York City and Newark Metropolitan areas.
Pilots should exercise extreme caution due to low flying aircraft. Flight crews should remain in contact with the appropriate ATC Facility for the area where their operations are being conducted to the maximum extent possible.
If unable to contact an outlying control tower, contact New York TRACON on 118.175, 120.8, 125.7 OR 263.0 for ATC services.
Pilots should also be particularly alert for possible additional airspace restrictions that may be implemented and check NOTAMs often.
Aircraft operators are reminded to maintain heightened vigilance and situational awareness while operating within the affected areas.
