Tampa-area general aviation airports prepare for Republican convention

Airports in the Tampa area are gearing up for increased traffic later this summer for the Republican National Convention, according to a report in The Tampa Tribune. TFRs will be in place for flights within a 10-mile radius of the Aug. 26 kick-off party in St. Petersburg and the Aug. 27-30 convention in Tampa. The FAA is expected to publish those TFRs about 30 days before the convention begins.
