This subpart applies to aircraft operated under VFR conditions within VOR Federal Airway No. 16 between longitudes 112°23′ W. and 112°41′30'' W., excluding that portion of the airspace within a four-statute-mile radius of the Litchfield Park Naval Air Facility (centered at latitude 33°25'25'' N., longitude 112°22'30'' W.), Monday through Saturday from 0600 through 1800 local time. § 93.73 Crossing VOR Federal Airway No. 16; jet training operations. Each pilot in command of a Luke Air Force Base jet aircraft operating outside the Luke Air Force Base airport traffic pattern and engaged in a training operation that requires crossing of VOR Federal Airway No. 16 shall cross within the airspace specified in § 93.71 at altitudes from 2,500 feet m.s.l. to 5,000 feet m.s.l., inclusive. § 93.75 Crossing and operating along VOR Federal Airway No. 16. Unless otherwise authorized by ATC, each person piloting an aircraft (other than an aircraft to which § 93.73 applies and aircraft departing Luke Air Force Base) crossing or operating along VOR Federal Airway No. 16 in the area specified in § 93.71 shall operate (a) At 2,000 feet m.s.l. or lower; or SOURCE: The provisions of this Subpart F contained in Docket No. 4085, Amdt. 93-5, 29 F.R. 15201, Nov. 11, 1964. This subpart prescribes a special air traffic rule for aircraft operated between sunrise and sunset, Monday through Saturday, in the airspace extending upward from the surface to the base of the overlying positive control airspace, bounded by a line beginning at latitude 30°42'50" N., longitude 86°38′02′′ W.; thence to latitude 30°43'10" N., longitude 86°27′37′′ W.; thence along the W boundary of R-2914 to latitude 30°19′45′′ N., longitude 86°23'45'' W.; thence three nautical miles from and parallel to the shoreline to latitude 30°20′50′′ N., longitude 86°38'50" W.; thence along the E boundaries of R-2915B and R-2915A to the point of beginning. This The Spirit of St. Louis-Lobmaster Airport Traffic Area is designated as that airspace within a three-statute-mile radius of the Spirit of St. Louis Airport, extending upward from the surface to, but not including, 1,500 feet MSL. airport traffic area is effective during periods when the control tower at the Spirit of St. Louis Airport is in operation. § 93.95 Special rules; Spirit of St. Louis Airport.
