Line Up and Wait
18May to 21May we'll have the usual TFR Ring over Chicago (specific times not stated yet).
I've always just avoided TFRs/TFR-days in Chicago, but I'm pretty sure I'll want to fly on that weekend so long as the weather is nice.
I'll likely be doing some back and forth between KJOT to KUGN (Eisenhower transition is what I usually fly w/ pax for the view, but solo I'll probably aim north until I'm in line with lake in the hills, and then cut east). What do you all recommend for this type of flight (I'm VFR only)? Would it be file a DVFR plan and call up o'hare approach for a squawk/frequency from the ground, or...?
I don't start instrument until this July, which I'm going to guess would answer quite a few of these questions. =P
Thanks for all/any feedback,
Steven
