The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a rule updating the required altitudes for flights following instrument flight rules (IFR) across specific routes in the country. These changes, effective February 25, 2021, aim to enhance flight safety and efficiency in the National Airspace System. The rule addresses necessary updates due to changes in air navigation aids and does not significantly affect small businesses. The FAA has determined this amendment requires prompt implementation to ensure the safe use of airspace without public notice and comment.
