Temporary Moving Airspace Reservations

JO 7110.65BB, Change 3, effective July 9, 2026 · Official text on faa.gov

Separate aircraft from a temporary moving airspace reservation by one of the following methods:

  1. Laterally: Clear aircraft so that the protected airspace along the route of flight does not overlap the (time‐dependent) geographical area of the moving airspace reservation.
  2. Longitudinally: Clear aircraft so that the appropriate longitudinal minimum exists ahead of the first or behind the last aircraft operating within the reservation.
  3. Vertically: Clear aircraft so that vertical separation exists while the aircraft is within a (time‐dependent) geographical area defined as the moving airspace reservation plus a buffer around the perimeter equivalent to one‐half the lateral separation minimum.
