Filing Flight Plan
I have read both view points on this.
Currently i am seeking my complex in a Arrow and doing so that i will be able to commute KAFJ to KESC occasionally
So my question or rather questions (2) are
1. Does flight following count as ATC control if flying over the small corner of Canadian airspace near Detroit? Box says Canadian airspace above 12,500 requires ATC control.
2.Would you guys fly the 23 minutes across Lake Michigan at the other crossing, in a single engine airplane?
The guy who is giving me my complex says he does it often. Said I may want a Life Jacket or some sort of a survival suit, though neither does he carry.
If you have Foreflight and map this trip you will see what mean about both the Canadian airplane and the Lake Michigan crossing.
About me,
100 hour pilot who will be buying a Arrow to make the trips in semi decent time and build retract time that will eventually help me move into a twin.
Thanks all for your thoughts, advise etc
