    History

    Federal Register Document 03-17766, published on Tuesday, July 15, 2003, (68 FR 41691) modified Class E airspace at Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS. The modification was to provide the appropriate Class E airspace to protect aircraft executing newly developed instrument approach procedures at Cessna Aircraft Field, Wichita, KS, to correct discrepancies in the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area and to bring the legal description into compliance with FAA Order 7400.2E, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters. This Class E airspace area is defined, in part, by the McConnell AFB airport reference point. On August 4, 2003, a revised McConnell AFB airport reference point was published. This correction incorporates the revised McConnell AFB airport reference point into the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, KS Class E airspace area and its legal description.
