Summary

Episode 301 Show Notes

Topic of the show: On this week's show, AG and RH discuss a shortcut through a very busy Class Bravo area on an IFR flight. Why was the original routing assigned? How is it possible to fly directly over a busy airport? And what can the pilot to do to plan for this type of routing? We also discuss departing VFR looking for your IFR flight plan, remarks, and much more. You don't want to miss this fun episode!
