Abstract
This action revises the legal descriptions of four Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways that include the Tuscaloosa, AL, Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) facility in their route structures. Currently, the Tuscaloosa VORTAC and the Tuscaloosa Municipal Airport share the same name and location identifier. The fact that the VORTAC and the airport are not co-located has led to confusion among users. To eliminate this confusion, the Tuscaloosa VORTAC will be renamed "Crimson VORTAC," and will be assigned a new location identifier "LDK." This rule revises the descriptions of VOR Federal Airways V-18, V-66, V-245, and V-417 to reflect the name change of the VORTAC.
