VFR transition route through LAX Class B revised

Operators using the VFR transition route through the Los Angeles Class B airspace can expect a Christmas gift from the FAA in the form of AOPA-backed improvements to the safety and efficiency of the routing. The changes, which become effective on December 25, include modifying the northern boundary of the transition area to align it with Class B airspace revisions that were adopted five years ago. In addition, the new rule revises the description of the routing to define more clearly the fixed altitudes at which aircraft may operate.
