Changes to the Class C airspace around Chicago Midway International Airport will be implemented starting June 15. Expansion of the airspace will increase safety and efficiency, but the impacts to general aviation operations will be minimized because of AOPA’s recommendations to the FAA.
Pilots flying along the Chicago lakefront, or in or around Chicago Midway International Airport, should familiarize themselves with the coming changes, as they are significant. Additionally, with EAA AirVenture Oshkosh—the world’s busiest aviation event—hosted shortly after the charts are updated, pilots flying to and from the event in Wisconsin should be aware of the new dimensions of the Class C.
