Allot of this area is like that, get below a certain altitude and they lose you.
but at least at 10k-12k he wouldnt need to wear O2.
On my trip back home, flight following helped me out by seeing a airplane at my
12 o'clock climbing, had to give me vectors since they were not talking to him,
turned out to be a flight of 2 mooney's but center only saw one of them.
then in the baghdad MOA I think I had a couple of fighters use me for target
practice, I saw them comming at me then peel off together, then they was gone,
man those guys are fast.

the best and easiest thing to do when VFR is to call center and get flight

I agree, although below 10,000' in that area there isn't any radar. It was
cool to see those pictures as that's the airspace I control. I've flown
through it too a few times, usually bumpy ride, in the summer anyway. That
area is crisscrossed with MTR's, and they are used on a regular basis. Lots
of B52's and B1's.
