NOTAM on Russian Citizens

[ahw01]

This is about seizure of aircraft (airplane repo) not airmen

There are a ton of “what if’s” with this. What if the person is a dual citizen? I know someone who was born in Russia, has lived in the US for decades, and is a pilot for a major airline. Is he technically grounded by this?
I don’t think it’s the spirit of the NOTAM

There was a phone number to call for a waiver at the bottom of the NOTAM. Probably a rubber stamp yes if he called?

I should’ve “clicked to expand”

thanks for the info. I’ll be curious to ask him.

A Russian Air Force IL-76 transport was just at KXMR the other day.

I presume space stuff? I dunno....we still do that with them right? Is the ISS now subject to the NOTAM if they extend it to space?

Imagine the morale aboard the ISS right now.

The flight isn't being operated for your hypothetical Texan-Russian, it is being operated for the air carrier.

Good point

And we didn’t keep it or, didn’t want it?

I didn’t see an upper limit.

I’m simply going on observations. Illegals here seem to have more rights and protections than legal citizens. But that’s an argument for another thread.

This is so incredibly false. You’re on a roll with nonsensical takes recently.

Oxygen thief. I thought we cancelled them

He's become the local gimp. and loves being beaten for his willful stupidity.

Why does the Ilyushin Il-76 have glass under the nose?

They are navigation windows. The plane is large and the cockpit windows do not allow easy sighting underneath the plane. This plane often operates in areas with sparse to no radar coverage and the crew needs the ability to find navigational land marks. This was especially important in the early 1970’s Soviet Union when the aviation infrastructure was quite terrible

What is self-awareness? And how can you cultivate it?

We tend to think we're self aware, but we're not. Here's how to get better at it.

There’s your problem.

This is the language of the NOTAM:



It strikes me as vague. I have a hard time believing that the FAA meant this to apply to Russian flight instructors, individual Part 91 renters, and hockey teams who need to move a bunch of players around.

@MidlifeFlyer - I suspect it might come down to the lawyering about Operator, but I'd be interested to know what you think. Even my local POI at the FSDO thinks this is weird and they are seeking some clarification from the FAA.

"Operated" is a very broad (although IMO, not vague) prohibition and would apply to those you mentioned. Whether that was intended should be the subject of clarification. So I guess my answer is "dunno."
