Transit through active SUA tends to defeat the purpose of establishing SUA.
VFR aircraft can transit MOAs and MTRs but there is nothing to arrange.


We've got a bunch of R areas here that the local approach control will
offer to arrange transit through if possible even when it is hot.
Margy even wrangled a transit through the coastal North Carolina
areas between Wilmington and Hatteras (although we worked out the
details on the ground before calling them up in the air when
we were coming through. We had to hold for about 2 minutes while
they safetied things so we could bring the Navions through.
