Start playing free

  1. Class B
  2. Class G
  3. Class E ✔

Why: Class E is controlled airspace that does not fit Classes A through D. Its floor can begin at the surface, 700 feet AGL, 1,200 feet AGL, or another charted altitude.

Huh, didn't know that: All airspace above Flight Level 600 is Class E.
