| Given what happened on Sunday, I am surprised at some of these comments.
I recommend all GA pilots to visit and spend an hour, pref on Sunday, at one of the ATC units above, if they havent already done so.
Arrange a club visit, you will be welcomed, I'm sure.
Following that, and if you are safety concious, you will no longer be offended by a 'stand-by'.
[climbs onto soap-box]
Plan your route around, with the transit as an alternate.
If you have planned a transit, with no alternate, and you are denied, in my view that is very poor piloting.
[climbs down again]
Fly safe. Dont be bold.
