Abstract

This action amends Class D, Class E2, Class E4, and Class E5 airspace at Patuxent River Naval Air Station (NAS) (Trapnell Field), Patuxent River, MD. The previously designated controlled airspace did not properly contain instrument flight rule (IFR) operations, which require controlled airspace. The geographic coordinates for Patuxent River NAS (Trapnell Field) are updated in the airspace legal descriptions. The references to the decommissioned Patuxent VORTAC are updated in the Class E2, Class E4, and Class E5 airspace legal descriptions. Last, the references to the decommissioned Patuxent River NDB are removed in the Class E2 and Class E4 airspace legal descriptions.
