| Aug 8, 2016 at 15:26 | comment | added | Lnafziger | The way that I read it, currently 5000 feet separation is required for airports below 1000 foot elevation, and above 1000 foot elevation is not currently permitted at all. That restriction is probably in place because of what I mentioned. The section that you quoted says that they are now considering other proposals, and being more lenient than in the past (which is a good thing)! | |

| Aug 8, 2016 at 15:13 | comment | added | Lnafziger | My guess is that since true airspeed increases as airport elevation increases, they need more space (time) in order to maintain separation if someone does something wrong. The 1000' mark was probably arbitrary and they are now reviewing each one on a case-by-case basis to see what will actually work. | |
