The airspace directly overlaying Fort Worth Meachum is Class D airspace to 3200 feet MSL. What is the correct upper limit of this Class D airspace?

• A. Class D airspace to 3200 feet MSL
• B. Class E airspace to 2000 feet MSL
• C. Class B airspace to 5000 feet MSL
• D. Class C airspace to 3600 feet MSL

Answer: (A)

Class D airspace runs from the surface up to 2,500 feet above the airport’s field elevation. Fort Worth Meacham’s field elevation is about 700 feet MSL, so adding 2,500 feet gives a top of 3,200 feet MSL. Therefore the upper limit is 3,200 feet MSL. The other options describe different airspace classes or top limits that don’t match a Class D sector around this field.
