NPRM Would Extend Victor Airways South Of The Border

FAA Says Result Would Be Improved Cross-Border Navigation

The FAA has published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to extend two Victor Airways across the border into Mexico. The agency says the action would enhance navigation and air traffic control coordination for aircraft proceeding across the United States-Mexican border.

The NPRM action proposes to modify very high frequency omnidirectional range (VOR) Federal airways V-135 and V-137 by extending the airways to the Mexicali, Mexico VOR/DME. This action  V-135 would be amended by adding a segment between the Mexicali VOR/DME and the Bard, AZ VORTAC. V-137 would be amended by adding a segment between the Mexicali VOR/DME and the Imperial, CA VORTAC. Additionally, fixes would be established at the border crossing points to simplify air traffic control coordination of flights.

Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic, environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.

Communications should identify both docket numbers (FAA Docket No. FAA-2011-0654 and Airspace Docket No. 11-AWP-8) and be submitted in triplicate to the Docket Management Facility. Comments must be received on or before February 6, 2012
