The North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) reported that in the last 48 hours, F-16s responded to a general aviation plane violating Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) over Palm Beach, Florida. Pilots are reminded to check NOTAMs for updates. The first incident occurred around 8:50 a.m. on Saturday, and another violation happened at 1:15 p.m. on Sunday. NORAD stated that during their response, the F-16s released flares to signal the offending pilot safely; these flares burn out quickly and do not pose a risk to those on the ground. Since Trump took office on January 20, NORAD has dealt with over 20 incursions into restricted airspace near Mar-a-Lago. NORAD Commander Gen. Gregory Guillot emphasized the importance of adhering to TFR procedures for safety and national security, noting that many civil aviators seem unaware of NOTAM requirements before flying, leading to multiple interceptions by fighter jets.
