  • 2021-03517 — Amendment of the Class E Airspace; Bradford, PA
    Type:Rule
    Citation:86 FR 10814
    Reading Time:about 6 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule to amend the Class E airspace designation at the Bradford Regional Airport in Pennsylvania. This change was prompted by the removal of the Bradford VHF omnidirectional range (VOR) navigation aid, as part of the VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) Program. The amendment involves adjusting the airspace dimensions and removing outdated navigation references to improve safety and efficiency for aircraft operations at the airport. The rule is set to take effect on June 17, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is making changes to the airspace around a small airport in Bradford, Pennsylvania, to make it safer and more efficient for airplanes to fly. They're doing this because they're getting rid of an old tool that helps planes know where they are in the sky.

  • 2025-05338 — Amendment of Alaskan Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range Federal Airway V-510 in Alaska
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 14195
    Reading Time:about 5 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule to amend the Alaskan Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airway V-510 due to the decommissioning of the Anvik Nondirectional Radio Beacon (NDB) in Alaska. This amendment extends V-510 between McGrath, AK, and Big Lake, AK. The rule is set to take effect on June 12, 2025. The FAA determined that this change will not significantly impact the environment or incur adverse economic effects.

    Simple Explanation

    The people in charge of airplane travel decided to change a flying path in Alaska because a helpful beacon, like a light in the sky, was turned off. This change won't hurt the environment or cost too much money, and it will start on June 12, 2025.

  • 2025-01453 — Revocation of the Kwajalein Island Class D and Class E Airspace in the Republic of the Marshall Islands
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 7994
    Reading Time:about 5 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule revoking the Class D and Class E airspace in the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) because the RMI is a sovereign nation, and the FAA does not have the authority to regulate its airspace as per Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Although this airspace was originally established when the United States had authority over the area, it was never revoked following the 1986 Compact of Free Association that recognized RMI's sovereignty. This rule addresses that oversight, and the change is considered routine with minimal impact. The rule is effective on April 17, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is like the boss of airplane rules in the U.S., but it can't make rules about the skies over the Marshall Islands anymore because that's a separate country. They used to have these rules because the U.S. used to manage that area, but now they're just officially saying it's up to the Marshall Islands to decide.
