Airspace Docket No. 98-ASW-30
Abstract
This action realigns six jet routes and eight Federal airways in the Amarillo, TX, area due to the decommissioning of the Amarillo, TX, Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) and the commissioning of the Panhandle, TX, VORTAC which is located approximately 4.3 nautical miles (NM) southwest of the former location of the Amarillo VORTAC. Specifically, this rule realigns the affected jet routes and Federal airways from the Amarillo VORTAC to the Panhandle VORTAC. The FAA is taking this action to more effectively manage air traffic in the Amarillo, TX, area.
