I was looking at some information in an ASA book, and found reference to a tower operating in Class E airspace. Anyone have an example of one of these airports? I was under the (false) impression that an airport with a tower was always at least Class D.
I'm pretty sure that KFDK becomes class Delta when the (temporary) tower is in operation.Greebo said:AOPA Headquarters on their fly-in day as well.
I don't think so - being Class Delta strikes me as being a more permanent change.inav8r said:I'm pretty sure that KFDK becomes class Delta when the (temporary) tower is in operation.
KOSH is normally class Delta as it has a tower year round - but becomes the busiest airspace in the nation during their EAA AirVenture event.
Quincy per the AFD (no sectional in front of me, this is WORK lunch time) is Class G, only occ. Class E by NOTAM. The big Maroon circle around Galesburg indicates Class E to the ground 12Z to 04Z.maximus said:I saw this same depiction on an Illinois aviation map. It had a blue airport at quincy Illinois which is normally class E airspace. Bruce have any idea of what this was about?
