Curious... new-ish student pilot, here.
The above limit for Class B airspace varies, but over NYC, it's 7000 feet. Does that mean a pilot flying VFR at 7500 feet over the Class B could intercept Jet Traffic ascending up into the Class A controlled airspace? I realize VFR flying requires separation, but what's to stop a jet coming out of the clouds from below (provided VFR operations above the clouds)?
