I have just seen you r going to Switzerland.

See if you can find the French Military frequencies for the relevant areas you will cross, it will help a lot.

If not, route through controlled areas, then at least you are talking to someone & won't be intercepted.

Sometimes they can be touchy with no radio contact.

Often the military don't talk to the civilians & buzz across as if it was 1930, had 2 close ones over France (normally Alphajets) & a Mirage play over Waterloo & 2 F16s use me for fun at the Belgian/Luxembourg Border.

Wish I was with you, but doing ATPLs.

Have fun.
