Proposed Establishment of Class E Airspace Areas; Moline, IL, Springfield, IL, Grand Rapids, MI, and South Bend, IN

الملخص

This notice proposes to establish Class E airspace areas at Quad-City Airport, Moline, IL, Capital Airport, Springfield, IL, Kent County International Airport, Grand Rapids, MI, and Michiana Regional Transportation Center Airport, South Bend, IN. Presently, these areas are designated as Class C airspace when the associated control towers are in operation. However, controlled airspace to the surface is needed when the control towers located at these airports are closed. The intended effect of this proposal is to provide adequate Class E airspace for instrument flight rule (IFR) operations when these control towers are closed.
