LAX Bravo Transition Restrictions
Posted: Sat Jun 11, 2016 9:45 am
Just out of curiosity, why do the Mini-Route and SFRA transitions have a 'no turbo-jet' restrictions? With the advent of the VLJ (very light jet) category, airplanes like the Citation 510 "Mustang" have no problem meeting the maximum 140 KIAS speed limit for the SFRA and there isn't a speed limit (other than the 200 KIAS limit for being in the Bravo). Is the restriction more of a legacy thing when a typical "jet" really could NOT easily fly slow?
