Narrative:
While on a flight from YYY to ZZZ airport, I most likely did fly within the tfr zone around a nuclear power plant site. Upon arriving at ZZZ we discussed our route with other pilots and found that I had not correctly located the nuclear power plant site. In retrospect I should have checked our proposed route with flight service or contacted approach for vectoring through the area.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: A C-170 PVT PLT ENTERS THE NEWLY ESTABLISHED NO FLY ZONE/TEMPORARY FLT RESTR AREA.
Narrative: WHILE ON A FLT FROM YYY TO ZZZ ARPT, I MOST LIKELY DID FLY WITHIN THE TFR ZONE AROUND A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SITE. UPON ARRIVING AT ZZZ WE DISCUSSED OUR RTE WITH OTHER PLTS AND FOUND THAT I HAD NOT CORRECTLY LOCATED THE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SITE. IN RETROSPECT I SHOULD HAVE CHECKED OUR PROPOSED RTE WITH FLT SVC OR CONTACTED APCH FOR VECTORING THROUGH THE AREA.
