Environmental Assessment for QSEU116038 - Lower Pattern Altitude at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia

Abstract

Moody Air Force Base (AFB) has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) that evaluates the potential environmental impacts associated with officially lowering the Moody AFB A-10 aircraft visual flight rules (VFR) overhead flight pattern from 2,000 feet above ground level (AGL) to 1,500 feet AGL. The VFR overhead flight pattern altitude is the altitude at which aircraft operating under visual flight operations (as opposed to using instruments) typically use while maneuvering in the airfield to line up for runway approach.
