Tell us the procedure you use for VFR into NYC.


I stay under it for the most part. The one time I had to go through was when
they had that 1 mile TFR around the WTC site. I departed 3N6 to the north and
called Kennedy approach as soon as I passed 1,000'. They told me to stay clear
of the B and call Newark. I reached Newark approach over the Raritan bay and
they gave me a vector and altitude with a further report point. No altimeter
setting as I remember.

Going into or over other controlled fields like Trenton, Knoxville, Roanoke,
Raleigh, and Norfolk, I've never been given an altimeter setting when I told
them I had the ATIS information. I've been into each of the first four fields
quite a few times.
