3.
Aircraft departing secondary controlled airports will not receive Class C services until they have been
radar identified and two-way communications have been established with the Class C airspace facility.
4.
This program is not to be interpreted as relieving pilots of their responsibilities to see and avoid other
traffic operating in basic VFR weather conditions, to adjust their operations and flight path as necessary to
preclude serious wake encounters, to maintain appropriate terrain and obstruction clearance or to remain in
weather conditions equal to or better than the minimums required by 14 CFR Section 91.155. Approach control
should be advised and a revised clearance or instruction obtained when compliance with an assigned route,
heading and/or altitude is likely to compromise pilot responsibility with respect to terrain and obstruction
clearance, vortex exposure, and weather minimums.
g. Class C Airspace Areas by State.
These states currently have designated Class C airspace areas that are
depicted on sectional charts. Pilots should consult current sectional charts and NOTAMs for the latest
information on services available. Pilots should be aware that some Class C airspace underlies or is adjacent to
Class B airspace. (See TBL 3
