Summary

This action proposes to establish 16 high altitude area navigation (RNAV) routes (Q-routes), and modify 7 existing Q-routes, in support of the Florida Metroplex Project. The proposed routes were developed to improve the efficiency of the National Airspace System (NAS) and reduce dependency on ground-based navigational systems that cause system inefficiencies due to their limitations.
