FAA Faces Deadline to Rename Lake Ontario on Airspace Charts
WHY IT MATTERS
The FAA's compliance with the order could impact air travel in the region, particularly for pilots and airlines relying on accurate and up-to-date navigation charts.
What happened
The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is under pressure to meet a deadline to update airspace charts with the new name of Lake Ontario, now officially renamed Lake America, following an executive order signed by US President Donald Trump.
The order, issued on August 27, requires all US government agencies, including the FAA, to use the new name in their official documents and records.
The FAA must comply with the order, but it is unclear if they will meet the deadline.
