Abstract
This amendment establishes Class D airspace at Albemarle, NC. The North Carolina Air National Guard has installed a control tower at the Stanly County Airport. As a result, Class D surface area airspace is required when the control tower is open to accommodate current Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) and for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport. This action establishes Class D airspace extending upward from the surface to and including 3,100 feet MSL within a 3.9-mile radius of the Stanly County Airport. Control tower hours of operation are tentatively scheduled for 1300- 2100, Tuesday through Saturday.
