Abstract
This action amends Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations, part 71 (14 CFR 71) by revising Class E airspace areas at Columbus, NE. A review of the Class E airspace surface area and the Class E airspace area extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at Columbus, NE reveals neither reflects the current Columbus Municipal Airport airport reference point (ARP). Also neither airspace area complies with criteria for extensions or for diverse departures. These airspace areas are modified to conform to provide controlled airspace of appropriate dimensions to protect aircraft departing and executing Instrument Approach Procedures (IAPs) to Columbus Municipal Airport. It modifies the extensions to both Columbus, NE Class E airspace areas, enlarges these airspace areas and brings their legal descriptions into compliance with FAA Orders.
