2. Press the B button to turn on the cursor.

The KLN 94 will normally alert you
prior to entering one of these areas
with a message prompt. When the
Message page is viewed it will dis-
play Airspace Alert and will also
display the name and type of the
special use airspace (figure 3-181).
If the special use airspace is a Class
B, Class C, CTA, or TMA, the mes-
sage page will also instruct you to
press the E button if you wish to
see the Airport 5 page (airport com-
munications) for the primary airport
so that the correct communications
frequency may be determined (figure 3-182).
NOTE: In addition to the message page messages that alert you to spe-
cial use airspace, the KLN 94 can also display the ten nearest areas of
SUA. It will even give you the direction and distance to the nearest edge
of the SUA. See section 3.9.2. "Viewing The Nearest Special Use
Airspaces."
The SUA alert feature is three dimensional. The SUA areas are stored in
the KLN 94 database with regard to altitude when the actual SUA altitude
limitations are charted in terms of mean sea level (MSL). Therefore, if you
are flying either above or below an SUA area you won't be inconve-
nienced with nuisance alert messages. However, if the actual lower limit of
an SUA is charted in terms of an altitude above ground level (AGL), then it
is stored in the KLN 94 as all altitude below the upper limit of the SUA. If
the actual upper limit of an SUA is charted in terms of AGL, it is stored in
the KLN 94 as "unlimited".
Only the outer lateral boundaries are used for SUA alerting of Class B,
Class C, CTA, and TMA airspace (although the inner rings are displayed
on the map on ORS 03 and higher units). These SUA areas are stored as
"cylinders" of airspace so all altitudes below the upper limit of these areas
are considered to be in the SUA.
