Abstract
This amendment to Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations, part 71 (14 CFR part 71) modifies the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area. The FAA has developed an Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) and an amended VHF Omni-directional Range (VOR) SIAP to serve Cessna Aircraft Field, Wichita, KS. The Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area encompasses that Class E airspace designed to protect aircraft executing SIAPs into Cessna Aircraft Field. This action modifies the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area to the appropriate dimensions for protecting aircraft executing these newly developed instrument approach procedures. An examination of controlled airspace for Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS has revealed several discrepancies in the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area. This action corrects the discrepancies by modifying the airspace area and its legal description.
