    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a correction to a rule announced on June 18, 2024, which had previously removed the need for certain pilots and instructors to have a medical certificate if they are not serving as required crew members. The original rule aimed at clarifying qualifications but overlooked updating specific section titles in the regulations. This document corrects that error by updating the titles to reflect the intended changes, ensuring clarity in the regulations. The corrections are effective from December 27, 2024.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA fixed some titles in their rule book because they made a mistake earlier when they said certain pilots don't need a doctor’s note if they're not flying the plane.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has implemented a final rule to amend and revoke certain Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airways in the eastern United States. This change is part of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) Program and is necessitated by the planned decommissioning of specific navigation aids in Florida. The amended airways include V-3, V-35, V-51, and several others, while airways V-295, V-529, and V-601 have been revoked entirely. This rule aims to maintain efficient and safe navigation across the National Airspace System by updating the route structure to reflect current operational needs.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is changing airplane paths in the sky over some parts of the eastern United States because they are removing some old navigation equipment in Florida. This helps make flying safer and more efficient.
