What is the general upper limit of Class G airspace in sparsely populated areas?

Class G airspace, also known as uncontrolled airspace, has specific regulations that determine its vertical limits based on the type of area. In sparsely populated areas, the upper limit of Class G airspace extends up to 14,500 feet Mean Sea Level (MSL). This upper limit is designed to accommodate a higher volume of air traffic and allow for various aviation activities while maintaining safety and efficiency in airspace use.

This elevation is fundamental because it provides a significant buffer above lower-altitude operations, enabling larger aircraft to operate at higher altitudes without interference from general aviation aircraft that might be flying at lower levels. In contrast, populated areas typically have lower upper limits for Class G airspace to minimize risk and enhance safety, as increased traffic density can lead to more complex airspace navigation challenges.
