Class E.✓ Correct Answer

C

Class G.

Explanation

On Figure 20, Fentress NALF (NFE), south of Norfolk near Great Bridge, is enclosed by a magenta dashed line, which the Aeronautical Chart User's Guide defines as a Class E surface area. The solid magenta rings of the Norfolk Class C airspace pass north of the field, so NFE is not in Class C. Because controlled airspace extends to the surface there, it is not Class G either.
