/ 1 min read
Table of Contents
The Federal Aviation Administration is proposing to update the controlled airspace around Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport in Bedford, Indiana. This change comes after the decommissioning of a navigation aid known as the Hoosier VOR.
Why it matters: This is primarily an administrative update to keep aviation charts and legal definitions accurate after the removal of a ground-based navigation station. The practical impact on general aviation or commercial flight paths is expected to be minimal, limited mostly to updated map data and slight adjustments in airspace boundaries for instrument approaches.
Who it affects
- Pilots operating in Bedford, Indiana, who need to know the new airspace boundaries for instrument flight rules.
This is a proposed rule from the Federal Aviation Administration published in the Federal Register; you should check the original document at regulations.gov for details before relying on these specifics.
