Amendment of Class D Airspace and Establishment of Class E Airspace; Fort Worth, TX

Progress

Summary

This action amends the Class D airspace and establishes Class E airspace at Fort Worth, TX. The name and geographic coordinates of Fort Worth Meacham International Airport, Fort Worth, TX, and the name of Fort Worth NAS JRB (Carswell Field), Fort Worth, TX, are also being updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database. The FAA is taking these actions to accommodate a U.S. Navy request to change the Fort Worth NAS JRB (Carswell Field) Class D airspace from full-time to part-time and establish part-time Class E surface airspace; the associated airspace reviews conducted to accommodate this request; and a biennial airspace review of the Perot Field/Fort Worth Alliance Airport, Fort Worth, TX. These actions bring the airspace into compliance with FAA orders and support instrument flight rule (IFR) procedures and operations.
