10.2 FLYING NEAR AN SUA'S BOUNDARY
In our second example, you are again flying due west at 10,500 feet, but this
time your planned course is parallel to the northern boundary of Shirley 1
MOA and less than two nautical miles away. When you reach Location #1
the “SUA Near < 2 nm” message warns you that the SUA is less than two
nautical miles away. This is different from the “SUA Near & Ahead” message
in that you are not projected to enter the SUA. Therefore, the SUA Page does
not indicate an estimated time before entry.
Your destination is Huntsville-Madison County Regional (H34). As long as
you remain on course the “SUA Near < 2 nm” message is the only message
you'll see and it will eventually disappear when you reach Location #2.
However, at Location #3 you decide(?) to change course to the southwest.
Shortly after you change course, the GPS 95 provides a new message, “SUA
Near & Ahead”. This message indicates that, not only are you less than two
nautical miles from the MOA, but you are also projected to enter the MOA
based on your new course. The SUA Page now indicates your estimated
time before entering Shirley 1 MOA.
