Thanks FYF
All sounds great. I have got the charts and I hope to get to grips with them long before I get out there as they are a little more daunting than the Florida ones I learnt with. Lots of terrain and it all looks very congested.
I am trying to get to grips with the VFR flyway routes down through San Diego. The chart gives them their own frequency - how do they work in practice?
Cheers
