## Abstract

This document establishes Class E airports at Flint, Bishop International Airport, MI. Bishop International Airport is served by Federal Aviation Regulations Part 135 (14 CFR 135) air taxi operations, and Federal Aviation Regulations Part 121 (14 CFR 121) air carrier operations. Controlled airspace extending upward from the surface is needed to contain aircraft executing instrument flight procedures and provide a safer operating environment when the control tower is closed. The airport meets the minimum communications and weather observation and reporting requirements for controlled airspace extending upward from the surface. This action creates controlled airspace with a 4.4- mile radius for this airport.
