I file around SUA that is likely to be active since it shortens the route
compared to getting routed around ir when you are close.

Ok, I just stepped up to a better plane with a certified GPS and am about
to go on a cross country (likely IFR).

The Direct path takes me across a couple of Restricted Airspace. Should I
plan to avoid or file direct and let ATC handle it with the clearance ?
