ABC’s of Airspace
![Page 5: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Class A Airspace
•Previously called the PCA or Positive Controlled Airspace. This is airspace in which all aircraft are subject to Air Traffic Control.
•Airspace from 18,000 feet to FL 600.
•Aircraft and pilot must be certified and operating under an IFR flight plan.
![Page 6: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Class B Airspace•Previously called the TCA or Terminal Control Area. This is airspace in which all aircraft are subject to Air Traffic Control.
•Airspace around the nation’s busiest airports.
•Pilots must receive an ATC clearance prior to entering Class B airspace.
•Dimensions are airport specific.

•Clear of clouds
![Page 9: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

N1234X, squawk zero three five two
![Page 10: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Class B Airspace - 30 nm veil
Equipment Requirements•A transponder with Mode C (altitude reporting) is required for any aircraft operating outside Class B airspace but within 30 nm of the primary Class B airport…..except
![Page 11: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FAR 91.215 states that any aircraft which was not originally certified with an FAA approved electrical system or never had one installed does not have to comply with the transponder requirement within that 30 nm veil.
![Page 12: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Class C Airspace
•Previously called the Airport Radar Service Area.
•Pilots must establish and maintain communications with ATC prior to entering Class C airspace.
![Page 13: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Class C AirspaceDimensions
•Airspace dimensions are more uniform consisting of an inner circle 5nm around the airport from surface to 4,000 above the airport elevation (expressed in MSL) and an outer circle from 5 nm to 10 nm, 1,200 feet AGL to 4,000 AGL (again expressed in MSL).

Class D Airspace
•Previously called the Control Zone
•Usually established at moderately busy airports that have an operational control tower.
![Page 19: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Class D AirspaceDimensions
•Airspace dimensions are similar, usually consisting of a circle approximately 4 to 5 nautical miles around the airport from surface to 2,500 above the airport elevation expressed in MSL.
•May have extensions of Class D or E airspace to contain instrument operations.
![Page 20: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Radio Message Format
Initial Callup (Towers*, or after a handoff)– The name of the facility that you are calling.– Your full aircraft identification.– Your message.– the word “over” if you think it is necessary.
Towers refer to all operating positions in the control tower... Clearance Delivery, Ground Control, Local Control.
![Page 30: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Radio Message Format
Initial Callup (Center, Approach Control or FSS)– The name of the facility that you are
calling.– Your full aircraft identification.– (FSS) the frequency you are listening on.– the word “over” if you think it is necessary.
![Page 31: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Radio Message Format
After Initial Callup (Center, Approach Control or FSS)– Your full aircraft identification.– Your message*.– The word “over” if you think it necessary.
The message should include your position, alititude,
and what you want to do.
![Page 32: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Radio Message Format
Easy way of remembering– Who you are calling– Who you are– Where you are– What you want to do

Radio Communications -Tips Do not shorten your aircraft
identification until the controller does. Be alert to the description of your
aircraft using aircraft type and color. Do not sit on microphone or wedge it
against your leg or against equipment.
![Page 34: Communications, Airspace and a bunch of other stuff ! Rick L. Crose Orlando International Tower.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f385503460f94c55096/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Radio Communications -Tips Especially in a terminal environment,
listen all all communications, not just the ones directed to you. This will allow you to develop a mental picture of what is going on around you.
