Military airspace
Military airspace is any area in which military aircraft are present and participate in a variety of activities. There are many kinds of airspace.
Military operating areas
A military operations area (MOA) is a zone in which military aircraft conduct non-hazardous exercises. It is highly recommended that pilots check for information on the MOA before proceeding into the zone.[1]
Controlled firing zones
Controlled firing zones are operated in such a way that they do not interfere with and/or pose a threat to
civilian aircraft.[1]
Alert areas
Alert areas are zones where unusual air exercises like
pilot training
are performed. Once again pilots are advised to contact the area prior to entering.
