8.9 NEAREST AIRSPACE PAGE

The last page in the NRST group, the Nearest Airspace

Page alerts the pilot to as many as nine controlled or
special use airspaces near or in the flight path. Alerts are
provided according to the following conditions:

• If the aircraft’s projected course will take it inside

an airspace within the next ten minutes, the alert
message ‘Airspace ahead -- less than 10 minutes’
appears (Figure 8-29). The Nearest Airspace Page
shows the airspace as ‘Ahead’.

• If the aircraft is within two nautical miles of

an airspace and the current course will take it
inside the airspace, the message ‘Airspace near

Airspace Page shows ‘Within 2nm of airspace’.

• If aircraft is within two nautical miles of an

airspace and the current course will not take it
inside the airspace, the message ‘Near airspace less
than 2nm’ appears. The Nearest Airspace Page
shows the airspace as ‘Ahead < 2nm’.
