FLYING AMID COVID-19: STATE-BY-STATE GUIDE FOR PILOTS
Many pilots have been grounded and are unsure of how to navigate the latest requirements
on general aviation flying while under mandatory stay-at-home orders in several states
and territories. To help alleviate some of the burdensome research pilots might be forced
to do to understand if they can continue flying in their state, AOPA has published a stateby-state guide on COVID-19 directives. To access the guide, users will need to log in or
create a free aopa.org account.
FAA SCALES BACK ATC SERVICE AS TRAFFIC DECLINES
No end date was given for the downsizing that affects ATC facilities in Class C and D
airspace where traffic volume has declined as much as 96 percent. The modifications will
be reviewed regularly for an eventual return to normal operations. The FAA will conduct a
regular analysis of traffic levels to determine how to appropriately staff the facilities.
The AOPA Air Safety Institute recently released a safety notice about ATC zero events that
provides additional guidance on what pilots can do during preflight to ensure they have all of
the pertinent information.
VFR CHARTS TO GO ON NEW PUBLICATION CYCLE IN 2021
The FAA announced plans to put visual navigation and planning charts on a 56-day
publication cycle early next year, streamlining the process of updating charted information
and causing some charts now in use to become obsolete earlier than their published
expiration dates. Read more here.
