Proposed Modification of Class E Airspace; Grand Rapids, MI, Kent County International Airport

Samenvatting

This notice proposes to modify Class E airspace at Grand Rapids, MI. An Instrument Landing System (ILS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) to Runway 35 has been developed for Kent County International Airport. Controlled airspace extending upward from 700 to 1200 feet above ground level (AGL) is needed to contain aircraft executing the approach. This action would increase the radius of the existing Class E airspace. The intended effect of this proposal is to provide segregation of aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from other aircraft operating in visual weather conditions.
