Brantel, I am waiting on the book and will do some more research online. We would love to hear your experiences if you have time.
Ron, I would also have requested to transit it. I have heard of guys getting in trouble while on flight following with ARTCC, and just assuming they were okay. I have ran into some very patient controllers and some that I will not ever go back to. We can't possibly know everything, but I do alot of reading/watching videos in the slow times of the year. I was trained to just stay away from "R-xxxx" restricted areas while flying, then while doing transition training with David Maib went through my first. Not difficult at all. I take it that once your handed off to tower though, no request necessary...maybe some of the more experienced guys can comment. Thanks.
