AIM Section 2, Controlled Airspace, Fig. 3-2-1, and explain to an obviously misinformed poor bloody RPT Captain how I transition from Class B (or maybe Class C, to upper airspace A, without transiting E???
It has been done to death before, however, lets do it again for the dummies:-
- US Class B is up to A080 or higher [
few if any VFR in TRACON Radar E above that]
- US Class C is up to 4,500AGL [
all VFR in TRACON E above are in radar covered Approach and Departures Terminal area airspace]
The Southwest Airlines 737 was within the Burbank/SOCAL [radar Approach and Departures] TRACON E airspace above the class C at the time of the accident
