The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing to amend three VOR Federal Airways (V-55, V-100, and V-277) due to the planned decommissioning of a navigation aid in Keeler, Michigan, as part of the VOR Minimum Operational Network program. These changes will affect how pilots navigate certain flight paths, requiring alterations to some segments of the airways. Pilots can use alternate routes or ask for guidance from air traffic control to adjust to these changes. The FAA is inviting public comments on this proposal until April 24, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to change some airplane paths in the sky because a special tool they use to help pilots find their way near Keeler, Michigan, is being turned off. They're asking people to let them know what they think about these changes until April 24, 2025.
