Class E

[Kodiak]

I am having trouble understanding one of the question on the written about Class E air space. Does Class E cover everywhere (all U.S. air space) that is not designated as Class A, B, C, D, G? In other words, would an area in the U.S. that has no airports, airstrips, or airways anywhere near that area be a Class E control air space above 1200'? Thanks

Yup, there it is.

I make a point of flying through that little bit of class G whenever I am out that way. There used to be some very peculiar slivers of G up to 14.5k in Arizona but they were eliminated about a year ago.
