Bill Summary

This bill allows military aircraft operating outside of designated Department of Defense airspace in the wilderness areas in the mountainous regions of Colorado to deviate from service-level requirements if oxygen requirements, icing levels, engine power limitations, cloud clearance, or turbulence prevent the aircraft from safely transiting the areas while maintaining such service-level requirements.
