Final answer:
The floor of the Class E airspace above Georgetown Airport (E36) is typically at 700 feet AGL unless indicated otherwise on the sectional chart. Without the specific chart, we cannot give a precise altitude, but Class E airspace commonly begins at 700 feet AGL or at the surface if indicated by a vignette in sectional charts.
This correct answer is 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is about identifying the floor of the Class E airspace above Georgetown Airport (E36) referenced in a figurative example (not directly provided).
However, a standard aspect of United States national airspace system regulations is that unless otherwise specified in sectional charts or other FAA publications, the floor of Class E airspace typically begins at either 700 feet Above Ground Level (AGL) or at 1,200 feet AGL.
Since we do not have the exact figure being referred to (Figure 71), it's important to understand how to identify airspace floors using a sectional chart. If the chart has a faded magenta vignette that extends up from the surface to 700 feet AGL, this indicates a Class E airspace that begins at the surface.
If the vignette begins above the surface, typically the Class E airspace starts at an altitude of either 700 feet AGL or at the base of overlying controlled airspace.
Regarding Georgetown Airport (E36), without the specific sectional chart, we cannot provide the exact altitude; however, we can say that the airspace is usually at 700 feet AGL unless indicated with a blue or magenta vignette that touches the surface area around the airport, which then would mean the Class E airspace starts at the surface.
