The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (SNPRM) to amend certain United States Area Navigation (RNAV) routes in the eastern U.S. The amendments aim to increase the efficiency of air traffic, especially as part of the Northeast Corridor Atlantic Coast Route Optimization Project. The key changes include modifying RNAV Routes Q-409 and Q-437 by correcting the state location of the OYVAY waypoint to Delaware and updating the geographic coordinates for several waypoints. Comments on these proposals are invited and must be submitted by January 21, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to change some airplane routes in the eastern U.S. to make flying more efficient, and they're moving a tiny spot on the map in Delaware. They want to hear what people think about these changes by January 21, 2025.
