Oct 4, 2018 at 4:25 comment added user22445 @JScarry - good comment above, but it's important to ensure that the questioner knows that in the entire area (not just the 4nm to either side of V15 ) Class E [controlled airspace] exists and begins at 1200' AGL. The exception, as shown on the map excerpt, are the areas to the west of V15 that are surrounded in magenta color depicting Class E [controlled airspace] beginning at 700' AGL.

Oct 3, 2018 at 22:27 comment added Crazydaze Thanks! I'll be sure to remember this for my test in the next couple of days.
Oct 3, 2018 at 22:24 comment added user22445 @crazydaze: V15 is a Federal Airway, normally used for IFR operations and shown on IFR charts as well as VFR Sectionals. Federal Airways, unless otherwise notated, begin at 1200 AGL. These airways are Class E airspace. If you look in the legend of your Sectional Chart it describes this airspace.
Oct 3, 2018 at 22:16 comment added Crazydaze Oh wow! Thanks, I did not see that at all. Can you explain where they got 1200 AGL from?
