The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a correction to a previous rule regarding airspace in Austin, TX. This correction fixes a typographical error in the geographic coordinates for the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport's Runway 18R-LOC. The correct coordinates are changed from “(Lat. 30°11′36″ N, long. 97°40′42″ W)” to “(Lat. 30°10′36″ N, long. 97°40′42″ W)”. This action ensures the proper establishment of Class E airspace in Austin, Lago Vista, and Lakeway, TX.
Simple Explanation
The FAA made a small fix to correct a mistake in a map that helps pilots find their way to an airport in Austin, Texas. They were using the wrong numbers for where the airport is, so they changed one of the numbers to point to the right spot on the map.
