Well, since I live miles from any airport that's NOT B or D, that would be
a little difficult, now wouldn't it?

Not at all. Move.

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.



I know you understand the concept of controlled airspace to the surface.


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

Don't be an ass.

It can be very easy. You asked how it's not hard to fly 1000 hours in a
summer without entering Class B, C, or D airspace. One must assume you
asked because you did not know.

But you didn't answer my question.

How would *I* do it when I'm not remotely located near uncontrolled
airspace?

That's not what you asked. You asked how remaining clear of Class B, C, and
D airspace presented no problem. Where there is little such airspace it's
easy, where such airspace is prevalent it's rather hard. You did not
specify a location.

I'm glad you don't work where I live.

I still don't see how people can say that remaining clear of B, C, and D
presents no problem when I've proved that it does for some people.

Why?

They say it because it presents no problem to them.

You left out the particulars of your circumstances and your location.
