Nav help !
Dear all
I am planning my first sortie through controlled airspace for sometime, a flight from Shoreham to Compton Abbas.
I have in my mind a routing from Shoreham to the north of the IOW, somewhere around Weymouth then a direct line from there to the VRP that is just outside the north of the Solent CTA (sorry dont have my map with me!) then a left turn direct Compton.
My theory behind this route is that it avoids trying to overfly BOH or SOU, just a couple of questions...
1. Do you agree with the route and my attemtp to avoid BOH and SOU ?
2. If Solent do not approve my route I planned to fly below their CTA (less than 2500 I believe) and keep south of BOH ?
3. What are the chances of continuing south a little from Weymouth and getting clearance to cross overhead BOH?
Appreciate your help
