This action amends Class E airspace area at Wichita Mid- Continent Airport, Wichita, KS. A review of this Class E airspace area for Wichita Mid-Continent Airport indicates it does not comply with the criteria for 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) airspace required for diverse departures as specified in FAA Order 7400.2D. The Class E airspace has been enlarged to conform to the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2D. In addition, included in this document are: a minor revision to the Airport Reference Point (ARP for Colonel James Jabara Airport; a minor revision to the coordinates for AUBRA Waypoint; the Wichita Mid- Continent Localizer and coordinates for Runway (RWY) 1L; and the McConnell Air Force Base Localizer and coordinates for RWY 1L. The intended effect of this rule is to provide additional controlled Class E airspace for aircraft operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), comply with the criteria of FAA Order 7400.2D, revise the ARP coordinates for Colonel James Jabara Airport, revise the coordinates for AUBRA Waypoint, add the Wichita Mid-Continent Localizer and coordinates for RWY 1L, and add the McConnell Air Force Base Localizer and coordinates for RWY 1L.
