Hello and welcome to FAA Flight training
In today´s episode we will take a look at class E Echo airspace.
Ok so what is class E airspace?
A good way to describe class E airspace is, if it´s not Class A, B, C, or class D, and it´s controlled airspace then it´s class E.
Here we will look at the different types of class E airspaces.
Class E, can be a surface area designated for an airport, that is configured to contain all instrument approaches.

Class E airspace can serve as extensions to class B, C, and D surfaces areas.
This type of class E, which serve as extensions, Is essential for standard instrument approaches, where the airspace need to be controlled.

Class E airspace, are used for transition, this type of class E starts at either 700 ft or 1200 ft AGL.

En route domestic areas are class E airspace.
That extend upward from a specified altitude and provide controlled airspace, in those areas where there is a requirement to provide IFR en route ATC.

Federal Airways, are class E airspace, and unless otherwise specified, the federal airways extend upward from 1200 ft AGL, up to but not including 18 000 ft MSL.

Offshore airspace areas, are classified as class E airspace. This is areas around the coast of United States, where there is a requirement to provide IFR en route ATC service.
It starts from a specified altitude, up to but not including 18 000 ft MSL.

Unless designated at a lower altitude class E starts at 14 500 ft MSL.

To operate in class E airspace, you need to have at least a student pilot certificate.
As long as the weather meets, the VFR minimums, you do not need a clearance from ATC to enter class E airspace. If however the VFR minimums are not met, you need ATC clearance for arrival or departure.

Class E below 14500 ft MSL is depicted on charts, class E without an operating control tower, but with instrument approaches is depicted with a magenta solid line, this means controlled airspace from the surface.
