The name and geographic coordinates of Fort Worth Meacham International Airport, Fort Worth, TX, and the name of Fort Worth NAS JRB (Carswell Field), Fort Worth, TX, are also being updated to coincide with the FAA's aeronautical database.

These actions bring the airspace into compliance with FAA orders and support instrument flight rule (IFR) procedures and operations. DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, July 9, 2026.
