He will be - unless he intends to fly only below 1100 (or in some cases
700) feet or other class G airspace. :-)

Yeah, okay;^)


I don't think that "they" could have used a worse term than "controlled
airspace". Almost every one assumes that it means that you have to talk
to a controller to fly in it - which it does not. It's great BFR oral
fodder, though. :-)

P.S. Frank, I understand that you knew that.
