Abstract
This action modifies Class E Airspace at Gettysburg, PA. The existing controlled airspace from nearby Gettysburg Regional Airport does not adequately support a new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Special Instrument Approach Procedure (IAP) that has been developed for medical flight operations for the Gettysburg Hospital. This action will enhance the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rule (IFR) operations by providing the required controlled airspace to protect for this approach at Gettysburg, PA. Additionally this action imparts a technical correction to the airport name.
