    Study Notes

    Class B Airspace

    • The floor of Class B airspace over Hicks Airport is at 4,000 feet MSL.
    • At Addison Airport, the floor of Class B airspace is 3,000 feet MSL.
    • Minimum pilot certification for Class B airspace: Private pilot certificate or student pilot certificate with appropriate logbook endorsement.
    • Required radio equipment for VFR in Class B: Two-way radio communications, a 4096 code transponder, and an encoding altimeter.

    Class C Airspace

    • Fixed wing special VFR is not authorized at Dallas-Fort Worth International and Dallas Love Field.
    • The vertical limit of Class C airspace above the primary airport typically extends to 4,000 feet AGL.
    • Class C airspace requires established two-way radio communication with air traffic control before entry.
    • All operations in Class C airspace must be in compliance with ATC clearances and equipped with a 4096 code transponder with mode C capability.

    Class D Airspace

    • The ceiling and visibility minimums for Class D operations with an operating control tower are 1,000 feet and 3 miles.
    • Communication with ATC is required at all tower-controlled airports for landings or takeoffs, regardless of weather conditions.
    • The airspace over Fort Worth Meacham is designated Class D to 3,200 feet MSL.
    • Airspace reverts to Class E or a combination of Class E and G when a control tower at Class D airspace ceases operation.

    Class E and G Airspace

    • Federal airways consist of Class E airspace extending from 1,200 feet to 17,999 feet MSL.
    • Class E airspace typically extends from either 700 feet or 1,200 feet AGL to, but does not include, 18,000 feet MSL.
    • Non-tower satellite airports in Class D airspace must maintain communications with the primary airport's control tower.
    • Airspace over Tomilson Airport is classified as Class G from the surface up to but not including 1,200 feet AGL.

    Special Use Airspace

    • Restricted areas, such as R-5302B, may contain unusual hazards like aerial gunnery or guided missiles.
    • Pilots may fly through restricted airspace only with prior authorization from the controlling agency.
    • In Military Operations Areas (MOAs), pilots are advised to exercise caution during military activities.

    Wildlife Refuge Considerations

    • FAA recommends pilots fly at least 2,000 feet AGL over national wildlife refuges, with requests for no lower than 3,000 feet AGL when practical.

    VFR Flight Regulations

    • VFR flights are prohibited in Class A airspace.
    • In alert areas, collision avoidance responsibility is with all pilots.
