Scheduled Special VFR Ban at IAD Withdrawn
FAA amends rule on the basis of a negative comment.

On Monday the FAA withdrew a direct final rule that would have prohibited Special VFR starting Tuesday, May 26, for fixed-wing aircraft at Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD). The FAA issued the requirement as a direct final rule because the continued growth in the number of IAD instrument operations and complex airspace has long qualified the airport for this restriction.
