ENID, Okla. (AP) -- There will be flight restrictions around Vance Air Force Base and Enid Saturday as President Bush will fly into and out of the airport for his speech at Oklahoma State.

Air Force One will bring the president to Vance where he'll take a helicopter to Stillwater before returning to Vance after the speech.

Enid Woodring Regional Airport manager Don Cornell says there will be a no-fly area within a 30-mile radius of Enid from 8:20 AM until 9:30 AM and again from 11 AM until 12:15 PM Saturday.

The area includes several smaller airports in the Enid area including those at Meno, Kingfisher, Medford and Perry.

Anyone violating the no-fly area will be intercepted and forced to land.
