Abstract
This action revises the Class E Airspace at Windsor Locks, Bradley International Airport, CT (BDL) to provide for adequate controlled airspace for those aircraft using Instrument Approach Procedures to the airport. The CHUPP NDB has been decommissioned, and after evaluation of the extension to the Windsor Locks Class C airspace defined using the CHUPP NDB, the FAA determined that the Class E3 airspace should be retained and extended 1 mile to provide adequate controlled airspace for the Instrument Approach Procedures to BDL. This action will enhance the safety and airspace management around the Bradley International Airport.
