One thing that I would bear in mind is when the weather lifts, there will search and rescue aircraft flying the mountains in Tennessee recording the damage and conditions for TNDOT. Please do not fly in those areas because a lot of pilots are not experienced in this kind of operations vs the crews that are. As the operations officer running the operations, I would request that you stay away from these areas as you will be comprising the safety of my aircrews. I understand the reasons behind these kind of operations but we will be on official missions for the State of Tennessee. Thank you.
