The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing to change the Class E airspace at Payson, Arizona. This change is a result of airspace reviews done due to the removal of the Payson non-directional beacon (NDB). The proposal involves expanding the airspace radius from 6 miles to 20.9 miles and updating the airport's name and geographic coordinates to match the FAA's database. This is intended to comply with FAA regulations and support instrument flight operations at the airport. The public can submit comments on this proposal until April 21, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to make a bigger sky space above an airport in Payson, Arizona, to help planes fly safely using instruments, because a special radio tool there was turned off. They also want to update the airport's position on their maps, and people can say what they think about this idea until April 21, 2025.
