Air space

portion of the atmosphere controlled by a country
(Redirected from Airspace)

Air space is the area of the air that is controlled by a country or organisation. You have to have the permission of the controller to enter their air space in an airplane.[1] The air traffic controllers make sure the planes go in the right place and do not hit each other or something else. Some countries are very protective of their air space.
