Pre-takeoff checklist
I'm planning a flight in a couple of weeks from OK to the Austin, TX area (KEDC, specifically). The direct route would require a transition through the DFW Class B area, but I've been thinking about planning a route that barely skirts the Class B to the west and only adds about 5 minutes to the plan.
The only reasons I could think of to to so would be (1) I haven't ever flown in/through Class B and (2) I have the impression that I'd probably be vectored a bit while flying through the Bravo and thus, the trip would end up taking longer than it would by skirting the Bravo in the first place.
What say you all? Am I better off transitioning or going around?
