Thanks for the update. I'd be interested in seeing that info. I put a request in for the ZFW, ZHU, ZAB SOPs over a year ago and I'm still waiting. I guess if you just ask for the charts and sector info only they process them much faster.

Absolutely unaceptable a FOIA would be needed for this. We the people paid (past tense) for the equipment and data. The data should be online like a TFR and nationwide not having to indicate specific sectors.

What was the price of the CD?

1. 49 U.S.C. § 552, as amended, and 49 CFR § 7.42 part 7, allow FAA to charge certain fees when processing FOIA requests. FAA can charge for:

1. Time spent searching, either manually or electronically, for responsive records;
2. Time spent reviewing those records for possible redactions; and
3. Cost of duplication on paper, CD/DVD or USB flash drive.
