Flyzone
I am a new IFR pilot flying a single engine Piper with steam gauges (ILS, VOR, DME) and no IFR GPS. I plan a trip from the northeast to Florida via V1. Below TYBEE the airway gets a bit distant from the shoreline and I prefer to be closer to the shoreline for safety. I know I can fly a bit inland on another airway but the shoreline route is much more interesting and keeps me awake
Can I fly a few miles right of course (say, 3) to nudge the shoreline without causing grief for anybody? I know the airway is 4 miles on each side of the center line so it seems that technically it would be ok. Is there any rule about flying the center line if you are able?
