TFR Around SBRJ

[A_Plane_Guy]

Hi IFC, it’s been a while…
I know this is nit-picky and probably doesn’t warrant a whole topic, but shouldn’t the TFR around SBRJ allow B738 instead of restricting all aircraft to B737/A320s and smaller? GOL in particular flies B738s to SBRJ all the time (although they’re lightweight). Here’s one doing so now.

I feel like the TFR police, I think I’ve made a couple of these topics at this point lol

Worried particularly bc I’m flying there now in a 738 and I don’t want to get auto-ghosted when I enter the TFR or something 😅

Hi @A_Plane_Guy,

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe “B737” refers to not the B737-700, but rather the entire family as a whole- this would allow B738s and B739s to fly in to SBRJ. I’ve been able to fly B738s into SBRJ with active ATC, so I don’t believe it should be a problem.

Best of luck!

This is correct. You have nothing to worry about @A_Plane_Guy.
