Memory lines:
Airspace classification = rules of operation in different airspace.
Controlled airspace = ATC control service available.
Uncontrolled airspace does not mean rule-free.
FIR = Flight Information Region.
CTR = Control Zone, starts from surface.
CTA = Control Area, starts above specified lower limit.
TMA = Terminal Control Area near busy terminal traffic.
ATS = ATC + FIS + Alerting.
