The Federal Aviation Administration has instituted a no-fly zone over Trump Tower in New York City now that Donald Trump has been elected president.
The no-fly zone of a two-nautical mile radius was implemented almost immediately after Trump was elected over Hillary Clinton on Tuesday night, TMZ reported.
We're told the FAA imposed the restriction almost immediately after Trump was declared the winner. No doubt the tragedy down the road on Sept. 11, 2001 weighed in on the FAA's decision. The restrictions apply until January 21, 2017, the day after inauguration.
Same goes for Veep Mike Pence's home in Indiana ... there's now a one-nautical mile radius airspace restriction.
And something else is in play. Trump has his own Boeing 757 ... something out of financial reach of most president-elects. The FAA and Secret Service are managing restrictions for Trump's plane during takeoff, flight and landing ... but the restrictions are secret.

Trump Towers in New York and Chicago have experienced protests since Trump became president-elect. The Trump Tower in New York City has even gone as far as putting up cement barricades to block protesters from getting too close to the building.
