Abstract

This amendment modifies Class D airspace at Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport, San Juan, PR, and Class E5 airspace at Luis Munoz Marin International Airport, San Juan, PR. A Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 9 Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) has been developed for Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport. As a result, additional Class D controlled airspace for the Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport, extending upward from the surface, and additional Class E5 controlled airspace for the Luis Munoz Marin International airport, extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, is needed to accommodate the SIAP and for Instrument Flight rules (IFR) operations at Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport. The Class D airspace will increase from a 3-mile, to a 3.9-mile radius of Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport and within 1 mile each side of the 275 deg. bearing from the Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport, extending from the 3.9-mile radius to 5.3 miles west of the airport. The Class E5 airspace area for the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport will increase within 1 mile each side of the 275 deg. bearing from the Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport, extending 2.5 miles west of the 13-mile radius of the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport. The operating status of the Fernando Luis Ribas Dominicci Airport will change from Visual Flight Rules (VFR) to include IFR operations concurrent with the publication of the SIAP.
