Disco, my guess is that he's cashed it in for the night. He's in a box.
It's my educated guess that Andrew's would NEVER route an aircraft along the route directly adjacent to P-56 simply because they would conflict with North Departures out of KDCA.

Below quote copy/pasted from page 10 since it appears Disco didn't get it the first 3 or 4 times.

Read it again Disco, perhaps slowly this time. I've also taken the liberty to bold the relevant part you're missing, and the part you conveniently omitted in your post.
Captain Bob - "Boone is arguing that since Word31 and Venus22 were issued the CS1, that it is the same reason Gofer06 was issued CS1. But, as you can see, Word31 and Venus22 first fix for route of flgiht is south and west.... thats why they were issued CS1 (well... they werent even issued CS1 either, they were just issued heading and DME which happens to be the same as CS1). While Gofer06 ffirst fix for route of flight is NORTH and West... AND east of P-56 (not south of P-56 as seen for the other aircraft routes), making it that more unlikely to issue CS1 or anything similar to Gofer06."
I'll be happy to copy/paste the above quote each time for Disco.
Let me guess, DCA was also busting the ground stop by the time GOFER06 was crossing their departure corridor? Or perhaps DCA didn't get the teletype of the ground stop by that time either.

Yes, I fully understand why you want to discuss ever other issue you can muster other than the OP.

According to this audio, DCA Tower was unaware of the nationwide ground stop until 9:29:56 a.m. It's pretty boring but you should give it a listen, VW.
Another issue, if DCA was notified at 09:29:56, and if the NOTAM effective time is accurate with 1329Z as published by Spencer (which by the way corresponds to what most ATC members at P4T have claimed, that the tower is usually notified prettty quick of a stop, you'd be bettter to claim State Dept time is more accurate if Pinch wants to hold onto his theory that there may have been several minutes delay of information to tower), how did GOFER06 get clearance to depart and cross DCA airspace at 1333? ADW has to contact departure for "release" (when aircraft is holding short or in position on the runway, tower calls departure control or center and asks if they can "release" the aircraft, within seconds tower clears the aircraft for take off), clearly if DCA tower knew at 09:29, departure knew. How did ADW release GOFER06 at 1333Z? It doesnt take 4 mins between take off clearance and wheels up.

I have two guesses: 1) they didn't receive the NOTAM on time, and 2) they didn't believe the NOTAM applied to the military.

So your whole theory is based on speculation, not Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). Great. At least you're consistent.
Well, at least we all agree that GOFER06 busted the ground stop, for either effective NOTAM time. Why he busted it appears is still speculation. Let's see if we can clear that up.
When Tyson didn't see the C-130 depart when notified of the stop (and surely they knew prior to DCA Tower, likely 30 seconds prior,

do you have that tape too?), and were expecting GOFER06 (did TYSON give a Clearance Void Time/CVT? If not, they were expecting GOFER06 at time of release, I've also seen CVT's of less than 5 mins), SOP is to call ADW and ask, "Hey Where is GOFER06? Don't release him if still on the ground, we're in a ground stop." Happens every day there is a stop. Tower calls and says "GOFER06, take off clearance canceled, we've just been put into a ground stop, not sure how long, say intentions.". Listen to any large (or small) hub Tower frequency on a foggy day, (or if there is fog at common destinations from such a hub).

Your only argument left is based on a theory that TYSON, a facility serving ADW every day, figured that it was "ok" to still release the C-130 because it was "military", without discussion with the twr or thinking of the consequences should they be wrong and in violation of regs

The delay due to a "Cherokee crossing downfield" at ADW? The helo I can buy, but a "Cherokee", at ADW? Really? Uhhh, ok. I guess they were doing sightseeing after two towers attacked in NYC. Or perhaps instruction. Does ADW now have a flight school on the field?

By the way, do you happen to know why GOFER06 was allowed to continue to destination when it was a "non-essential" military flight and all others were being grounded?

Was it so he could observe the smoking hole in Shanksville in which so many of you use to support the govt story?

So, since you speculate, I'll indulge.

The C-130 was cleared to bust the ground stop so he could be vectored to pass by the "South side of the mall" to be another observer to the decoy aircraft and a possible "witness to the impact" for the mainstream media to spin. O'Brien admits himself that he did not see the "impact", but the mainstream media ignores such a claim by the pilot himself, and anonymous posters on the internet parrot such "impact claims" in a poor attempt to add to their "impact theory", ad nauseam. The C-130 is allowed to continue to destination for the same reasons in Shanksville.

Many years later a team of citizens interview witnesses on location who confirm such flight paths. After releasing such information, they come under heavy attack and ATC strips with penciled in headings which also happen to conflict with audio ATC tapes regarding distance, start to spread by anonymous internet individuals who once parroted "impact claims" allegedly made by the pilot (which in fact were never made),

How in the hades do you know they should have known 30 seconds prior?
There was no clearance void time on the audio tapes,

It has not been established that the Ground Stop issued at @ 9:30 applied to military aircraft.
TYSON would not make the determination if it was an essential flight anyway. That decision would be made by the military.
It was 0929 (according to a post you made from Spencers NOTAM, embedded image below). Please stop trying to move the goal posts.
