The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule to establish and modify airspace over North Dakota. This would create a domestic airspace area at 1,200 feet above the state and remove existing airspace regions at Harvey and Linton to improve air traffic control and support instrument flight rule (IFR) operations. The proposed changes are in response to requests from air traffic control centers in Salt Lake and Minneapolis. Public comments on this proposal are open until April 9, 2021, and must be submitted following specific guidelines provided by the FAA.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to change some of the sky rules over North Dakota to make flying safer and better. They plan to add a new area for planes to fly and take away old ones where they don't need them anymore.
