500 above the top of a Class B is a pretty busy place. All those jets
tend to enter and exit the CBAS through the top. Depending on the
arrival and departure routes in use at the time, you may find yourself in
the middle of a very dense line of heavy metal.

Are you within your legal rights to blow off ATC's vector, squawk 1200,
and continue on your merry way fat, dumb, and happy? Sure you are.
But legal isn't always smart.


Is the controller acting within his legal authority when he initiates
vectoring of a VFR aircraft 500' above the top of a Class B?
