I've flown from Phoenix to CXP in September the past couple of years to
park there during the Reno Air Races. You've got the right idea. Jean
airport (0L7) has fuel (although I just noticed that for some reason it
doesn't have tick marks on the airport symbol on the sectional), and it
skirts the class bravo a bit more easily to the south. Stick close to
V105 past Beatty and Coaldale - it threads through the special use
airspace nicely.

I'm planning to fly from Tucson to Carson City in a couple of weeks. I'll
probably make a refueling stop in my Archer at Boulder City, then skoot
under the Vegas class B to the west and head up towards Beatty and on to
Carson City.

Do any of you have experience with flying this route? Any suggestions for a
better one? Its a bit of a wedgy with Restricted airspace to the east and
the Sierra Nevadas to the west.
