  • 2021-01932 — Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; Clearance of a Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Notice of Proposed Outdoor Laser Operation(s)
    Type:Notice
    Citation:86 FR 7611
    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking public comments on its request for approval to continue collecting information about outdoor laser operations, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This information helps ensure such operations do not interfere with air traffic and may require an FDA variance. The FAA uses this information to evaluate and respond to proposed laser operations that could affect the National Airspace System. Comments must be submitted by March 30, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to hear what people think about their plan to continue checking where outdoor lasers are used, so they don't mess up where planes fly. They need to make sure lasers don't cause problems in the sky.

  • 2025-01908 — Establishment of Area Navigation (RNAV) Routes Q-162 and Q-166; Southwest United States
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 8488
    Reading Time:about 6 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has established two new Area Navigation (RNAV) Routes, Q-162 and Q-166, in the southwest United States. These routes provide alternative paths for air traffic between southwest Arizona and western Texas, especially useful during severe spring and summer weather. This is part of an ongoing shift to a satellite-based navigation system in the National Airspace System. The regulation is technical in nature and not expected to have significant economic or environmental impacts.

    Simple Explanation

    In the story, the FAA made two new invisible roads in the sky between Arizona and Texas to help airplanes fly safely when the weather gets really bad. These sky roads use special technology that talks to satellites so planes know where to go, just like using a map on a phone.
