Abstract
On February 26, 1997, the FAA delayed the implementation of certain provisions of the December 31, 1996 final rule, Special Flight Rules in the Vicinity of Grand Canyon National Park. In addition, the final rule reinstated and removed certain portions of Special Federal Aviation Regulation (SFAR) No. 50-2, Special Flight Rules in the Vicinity of Grand Canyon National Park, AZ. The final rule contained an error, in that it inadvertently removed section 3 of SFAR No. 50-2. Section 3 provides certain restrictions, such as altitude requirements, for non-commercial sightseeing operations in the Special Flight Rules Area (SFAR) of the Grand Canyon National Park. This action corrects the error by reinstating section 3.
