I think the point about flight following is that the pilots in
question likely would have been alerted to the fact that they were going to bust it before they busted it. They didn't need to go through it, just around it. Jonathon If they were squawking and talking (I.E flight following), then there is nothing to "bust". Allen Flight Following does not guarrantee anything. The PIC still shoulders primary responsibility to avoiid restricted airspace and other aircraft (in VMC). ATC usually does a good job about reminding participating aircraft of airspace and tracks/targets, but just because you have FF does not automatically give you carte blanche to enter class B or class D or any airspace except the airspace "owned" by the controlling agency providing the service. Nine times out of ten, ATC will coordinate the appropriate clearance but if they get busy and forget, you're screwed if you thought you can use FF as a defense. Tim |
