Civil (VFR) aircraft have access at all times except Prohibited areas, it
may not be smart to go in that airspace.
Restricted, Warning and MOA, sure.. go in if you want too.. it's your
life, and possibly the life of a military pilot you are risking.


That's not correct, VFR aircraft can enter MOAs but not Restricted Areas.


Correct, and be even more careful in Warning areas. These are in fact
areas that would have been Resticted areas but are outside where the
gov't has the authority to make such designation.

VFR aircraft *CAN* enter Restricted Areas, *IF* they can establish
communication that shows those areas to be "cold." Often those RAs are
"hot" only above or below certain altitudes. We have several in Florida
that are set up this way.

Sometimes it is difficult to find the appropriate frequencies to
establish whether an RA is "cold" or "hot".
