Ok, here's something I noticed running up to State College
yesterday. about 20 miles south of State College there's
a class E transition area with no airport in the middle of
it (there's Stottle Mem 02P, I think that's a hospital
helipad on the edge of it, but I don't think that's the
reason for it). Was there an airport here at one time
with an approach? Why is this here?


It's for the Copter RNAV approach to Stottle Memorial. The FAF, CASLA,
is at the center of the mystery airspace.
