Once you’re back on the Moving Map Page, you’ll

notice that our plane is getting close to the special use
airspace surrounding KAUS. Whenever you are within 2
nm of an SUA, projected to enter an SUA or inside an
SUA, the GPS 90 will notify you with a message and
supply detailed information on each SUA you are being
alerted to. By looking closely at the map display, you’ll
notice that we will come very close to the KAUS SUA,
but not actually enter it. Once our flight takes us within
2 nm of the SUA, we’ll be alerted with a ‘Near SUA
< 2nm’ message (you may have to wait a minute or so to
get the message, depending on how fast you’ve made
your way through the Takeoff Tour).

c o n t rolling agency and altitudes, is available from the

desired SUA name and press

appear, providing additional information on floor and
ceiling altitudes for the selected SUA.
