## Abstract

This action establishes a high altitude area navigation (RNAV) route, designated Q-42, extending between the New York-Philadelphia area and the Kirksville, MO, very high frequency omnidirectional range/ tactical air navigation (VORTAC) facility. The route will streamline RNAV procedures in the east-central United States by creating a route parallel to the existing Jet Route J-80. This action will help alleviate departure delay issues for westbound aircraft flying from the New York and Philadelphia areas.
