Well, if you're among the piston-only crowd as most of us are, I think
you're very unlikely to encounter an ALTRV. I've never heard of one

over
land that was not in Class A airspace, and all of those that were at low
altitudes were far out to sea.


except for the initial departure, climb corridors, and arrival tracks..

that
were part of all of my ALTRVs... well.. actually I guess that was part of
the IFR clearance.. with a control time at the "start ALTRV" point at
altitude.. once in the ALTRV, and on time, ATC no longer assumes
responsibility for separation within the ALTRV (MARSA).. ATC only keeps
those not on the ALTRV clear..

but that was oh so long ago... LOL

I'm a pretty conscientious fellow & have almost finished my IFR
training, but I've *never* heard of a CARF or come across
an ALTRV. Looks like there was something missing in my
training and/or my study.

So what am I supposed to *do* with this information? Does it
just mean that I, planning an IFR flight, should avoid filing
route segments that intrude on this volume? Does it have any
significance for me planning a VFR flight?
