Remove Class E4 Over Boire Field
The FAA proposes to remove the Class E4 airspace that extends upward from the surface for Boire Field Airport in Nashua, NH because it is no longer needed to contain instrument flight rules (IFR) operations. The FAA says the change is intended to keep operations safe and simple and that the anticipated impact is minimal with no significant economic impact on small entities.
Update Class D Airspace Description
The FAA proposes to amend the Nashua, NH Class D airspace description to specify the area extends from the surface to 2,700 feet MSL within a 5-mile radius of Boire Field Airport, excluding a 2-mile radius around Pepperell Airport. This Class D area is effective during the specific dates and times established in advance by a Notice to Airmen and will be continuously published in the Chart Supplement.
