Abstract
This action establishes Class E surface airspace at Tyndall Air Force Base, (AFB), FL, for the safety of aircraft landing and departing the airport when the air traffic control tower is closed. Also, this action amends Class D airspace by updating the geographic coordinates of this airport, as well as replacing the outdated term "Airport/Facility Directory" with "Chart Supplement". Controlled airspace is necessary for the safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations at this airport.
