An instruction from ATC is often a free pass to deviate from the FAR's.
I was allowed deviation from a FAR last week in my J-3 when I entered
the mode C veil of Seatack.


What was the instruction that allowed you to enter the Mode C veil? Does
your J3 have an engine-driven electrical system?



BTW...ATC never told me to extend my downwind. The downwind was
extended by virtue of the fact that the aircraft I was told to follow
was way out there.


You said it was on a two-mile final. It appears there was plenty of room to
follow the Arrow and avoid Class B if you had flown a proper pattern.
