No, there are no airports around me that are not B or D.


Yes there are.

Now if I could get a female stalker, 5'7" or less, trim, brunette or
blonde, active, adventurous, no kids. Stalking must be innocuous and
not symptomatic of any psychoses (sp). Need not be a pilot but that
is a plus.

And looking for someone to fill her hangar? dirty-old-man-grin

I could always remove the radios, and fly NORDO.


The AirVenture no-radio arrival procedure is provided for use only by
Vintage aircraft. Does your airplane qualify?

No. I realize that I've had stalkers on Usenet before, and it's no one's
business where I live. I live in the surface area of a Class B airport.
Check out a chart and you'll see how far it is from any Class B airport
in
this area to airports and airspace where I don't have to talk to ATC.


Looks like Grand Prairie is about four miles from where you live,
Arlington is about six miles, Hicks is about twelve, Lakeview is about
six, Mesquite is about eleven, Lancaster is about eight, etc., etc., etc.

Grand Prairie, and Arlington are towered, although non-federal.

I used an online D sectional, it's rather hard to tell blue from magenta. I
see now that Grand Prairie has a control tower frequency shown, but
Arlington does not, and neither has Class D airspace depicted.

Even if those two do have control towers, any competent pilot can still fly
a lot of hours VFR in the area without having to call ATC.

Are you illiterate?


No.


Or do I need to rephrase?


No.


It's NOT easy to not talk to ATC where I live.


I'm sure you find it hard, it would be easy for me.


Ok. I am closest to DFW, DAL, and ADS. Tell me how you would fly,
easy, legally, without talking to ATC.

Two hours to an uncontrolled field? That's sad.

Most of it is traffic. I'd be willing to be the nearest uncontrolled
field is 30 miles or so away, but actually getting there is the trick.
I'm from Chicago, and the traffic there doesn't compare the snarls here.
The population exploded, and the infrastructure just didn't explode
with it.

Grand Prairie is a 45 minute drive for me. Arlington can be an hour on
bad days. Mesquite, easily and hour and a half (plus, you'll get shot
on the way), and Lancaster? Over two hours to get to Lancaster.

Pervs.

Unfortunately, I fit his description. Maybe that could be a new hobby.

Out of what airport, easily? You've yet to name an easy airport to get to.
