whoateallthepies - The FAA published another NOTAM today that permits VFR training in most of the enhanced Class B airspace (expect Boston I believe). AOPA has full info at www.aopa.org
This means that you must have a CFI on-board (and there are some weight restrictions on the aircraft). But with any luck you'll be alright for your Florida flight training.

Airscream - that freedom is/was amazing isn't it? Glad you got to experience it! I feel lucky to have experienced it - pretty much go anywhere whenever you want. I hope it doesn't become a thing of the past for private pilots not engaged in flight training, but we'll just have to see.
