I'm still trying to figure out how that's not hard. At least where I fly,
it's very difficult to not enter controlled airspace.


You can enter controlled airspace VFR without using ATC.


Only class E.

Correct.


So how is it now difficult to never require contact with ATC?

Because contact with ATC is not required to enter Class E airspace VFR.

Well, since I live miles from any airport that's NOT B or D, that would
be a little difficult, now wouldn't it? I know you understand the
concept of controlled airspace to the surface.

Make that, I know you understand the concept of B or D airspace to the
surface.

Not at all. Move.

I do. Would you like me to explain it to you?

Why would I want to do that. I don't have a problem with talking to
ATC. I'm simply pointing out, not to you, that avoiding controlled
airspace and ATC is not as easy as some people are making it seem.

Don't be an ass.
