I did get an email this evening from my local TRACON Airspace manager,
forwarding me the 7110.577 document and wanting to discuss the impact
to our local soaring operations. I replied, we are ready to roll from
1200 to 1202, was he ready?


Does anyone know if they will issue NOTAMS as these changes are implemented?

ZDV Airspace Beacons and Procedures said to hold off on 1202 until the
effective date of March 7th.

I think part of the delay is due to 7110.66E not having been published
yet (national beacon/code assignments), which is why the change was
omitted from 7110.65U.
