➃ If you are within 2 nm of an SUA and your current

course will not take you inside the airspace, a
‘Near SUA < 2nm’ will be displayed.

NOTE: All SUA alerts are based on your present GPS

altitude. Some airspace altitude limits may be charted in
terms of altitude above ground level (AGL). If the actual
lower limit of an airspace is charted in AGL, the GPS 92
will alert you at any altitude below the upper limit.
However, if the actual upper limit is also charted in AGL,
the GPS 92 will provide the alert at all altitudes.

The GPS 92’s provides SUA alarms for the following

airspace types:

• Class B/CTA- ICAO Control Area

• Class C/TMA- ICAO Terminal Control Area

• Other CTRL- Other Controlled Airspaces such as

control tower airspace and control zones. (Typically
referred to as Class D.)

• MOA- Military Operations Area

• Restricted- Restricted areas

• Other SUA- Other airspaces, including alert, cau-

tion, danger and warning areas

Turning SUA Alarms On & Off

Turning a warning ‘off’ from the alarms page will only

prevent you from receiving a message alert for an air-
space. SUA information will still be displayed on the map
page unless that category is turned off from the map
option menu (see page 44).

1. Highlight the desired SUA category and press

NOTE: Alarms for prohibited areas are always on.

Disabling any of the above listed airspace categories only
removes the alert. The boundaries will still appear on the
map display, unless disable from the map options page.
