Table of Contents
The Federal Aviation Administration has issued a final rule removing a section of Class E airspace over Honesdale, Pennsylvania. This airspace was designated to support the Honesdale Sports Complex Heliport, which is no longer in operation.
Why it matters: This is a routine update to keep official airspace descriptions current. For pilots, it means the controlled airspace boundary at the former heliport no longer exists, so they no longer need to follow Class E rules in that specific spot. For everyone else, there is no practical effect.
Who it affects
- Pilots and aircraft operators flying near the former Honesdale Sports Complex Heliport.
The Federal Aviation Administration published this final rule in the Federal Register. Read the original document for the complete text and effective date.
