Flying under Class B

It doesn't vary at all. If you're outside of the Class B airspace ATC
has
no authority to assign altitudes to VFR aircraft.



Steve,

We can argue rules all day long, but the way things are done can make the
results of whats done inside the rules seem strangely dissimilar in the
cockpit.

Whether they have authority or not at all, doesn't matter one wit. They
do
it, and you can respond with compliance or not (since they do not have
authority, you can choose to disregard).

I have given you a real life, and common, example of what happens in my
area. If you choose to not believe me, that is fine. Lots of people fly
down the coast of Florida outside of the class B. Am I the only one who
ever gets an assignment?


I didn't say it wasn't done, I said they don't have the authority to do it.
