    Reading Time:about 9 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing amendments to Jet Routes J-83 and J-85, as well as VOR Federal Airways V-415 and V-605 in the eastern United States to support the relocation of the Spartanburg, SC VORTAC. This project involves adjusting several flight paths to prevent conflicts with nearby routes and updating the navigation points due to the VORTAC's new location. The FAA has determined that these changes are necessary for maintaining efficient air traffic flow and safety in the National Airspace System. Public comments on this proposed rule are invited until February 3, 2025.

  • Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 14197
    Reading Time:about 9 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule that changes several Jet Routes and Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal Airways, while also revoking a couple of VOR Federal Airways near Goshen, Indiana. These changes are necessary due to the decommissioning of part of the Goshen VOR navigational aid, a move that supports the FAA's program to maintain a minimal operational network. The amendments are part of routine updates to ensure efficient air traffic management without significant environmental or economic impacts. The new rule will become effective on June 12, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is changing some invisible paths in the sky where planes fly near Goshen, Indiana, because they're turning off an old guiding tool to use a better network. This helps keep things safe and organized for airplanes without causing big problems for the environment or costing lots of money.
