Airspace Docket No. 98-ACE-37
Abstract
This action amends the Class E airspace area at West Plains Municipal Airport, West Plains, MO. The FAA has developed a VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Runway (RWY) 36 Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) to serve West Plains Municipal Airport, MO. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate this SIAP and for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at this airport. The enlarged area will contain the new VOR RWY 36 SIAP in controlled airspace. The intended effect of this rule is to provide controlled Class E airspace for aircraft executing the VOR RWY 36 SIAP and to segregate aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from aircraft operating in visual conditions.
