Hurricane Helene... obiden&kommie NOT HELPING AMERICANS IN NEED...death toll rises to 256+... and 1k+ still missing...

Tweet is misleading, they’re setting up TFRs over the airspace to ensure General Aviation isn’t interfering with the airspace to enable free flow of relief flights.
They should be working with Volunteers not getting in their way. Being they are doing the heavy lifting in actually assisting people. That's the problem so it's not misleading when you take that into consideration. They pick and choose what rules they want followed and politics always get in the way.

So I understand your ATC concerns as they are legit but it's not that hard to coordinate with a little effort.

TFRs aren’t some crazy thing. For instance, one goes up every home game in Morgantown around the stadium. They put them over wildfires. This is actually a mechanism to increase relief air traffic in the area. This is a good thing.

There's no reason to have a TFR for off the shelf drones used by Volunteer Search and Rescue Teams unless they are in the LZ or in the same area S&R helo is flying fvcking around. My point is coordinate with them instead of grounding everything. Every second in S&R is extremely valuable. It's not a sporting event or even a wildlife being contained by Fire Fighters. If latter is what we were talking about then I would agree with you. I'm being told nothing is allowed in the area's affected right now.
