Also, arrival wise, I usually call up Fort Worth Center a ways out (or
get handed off for flight following) and they will hand you off to
approach at the appointed time. If you can maintain a heading and
altitude, they will help get you right on in there. There is a Vortac
not too far from Love Field which may help with your approach, depending
on your direction that you arrive from. If arriving from the southeast,
they will either vector you over/across a lake E/NE of town... OR may
vector you on a downwind for the west parralel by aiming you at Texas
Stadium. Unless you are real good at visualizing urban airports, it may
be difficult to identify until within 8-9 miles.

If you pick Regal at DAL, request the east runway if able. It will
really save on the taxi time and progressive directions. One note
thought, while it hasnt been a problem for me (hasnt happened I mean)and
I doubt that the FAA scrutinizes Regals clients any more than anyone
else, a ramp check may be more likely so make sure all your papers are
present. The FAA FSDO is located adjacent to Regal. Even then, I go
there exclusively now.
