Title: Explain special-use airspace.
Course: Aircraft Pilot Training I (20053-I) > Section: Exploring Regulations

Explanation should include the following:

- Special-use airspace (SUA) is an area designated for operations of a nature such that limitations may be imposed on aircraft not participating in those operations. Often these operations are of a military nature.
- The designation of SUAs identifies for other users the areas where such activity occurs, provides for segregation of that activity from other users, and allows charting to keep airspace users informed of potential hazards.
- Most SUAs are depicted on aeronautical charts and FAA maintains a page showing the current status of most SUAs.
