Folks,
As some of you will already know, you can fly the entire east and west coasts of USA, in VMC, without any kind of a clearance.
The only occasional difference to this statement is if there is a rocket launch at Cape Kennedy (Canaveral) , any delay will be brief.
And, of course, no GA pilot needs anything like an ASIC anywhere in the US. (very few countries have Australian like prescriptive restrictions)
As (Admiral) Donald Engen, at the time FAA Administrator said, after his first and only visit to Australia ( a very perceptive man): " In US, because a man is a pilot, we trust him, in Australia because a man is a pilot, you mistrust him".
Tootle pip!!
PS: This is the exact quote, long before present gender sensitivities, and I am not going to misquote him to conform to present norms. Indeed, the old Norm will do.
