## Abstract

This action amends the Class E airspace area at Hutchinson Municipal Airport, Hutchinson, KS. The FAA has developed Global Positioning System (GPS) Runway (RWY) 3, GPS RWY 13, GPS RWY 21, and GPS RWY 31 Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) to serve Hutchinson Municipal Airport, KS. Additional controlled airspace extending upward from 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) is needed to accommodate these SIAPs and for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at this airport. The enlarged area will contain the new GPS RWY 3, GPS RWY 13, GPS RWY 21, and GPS RWY 31 SIAPs in controlled airspace. In addition, the Hutchinson Instrument Landing System (ILS) and coordinates have been added to the text header. The intended effect of this rule is to provide controlled Class E airspace for aircraft executing GPS RWY 3, GPS RWY 13, GPS RWY 21, and GPS RWY 31 SIAPs, include the Hutchinson ILS and coordinates, and to segregate aircraft using instrument approach procedures in instrument conditions from aircraft operating in visual conditions.
