Pre-takeoff checklist
I've been using my x-c building time to see local airports I didn't see during training. I'm planning to do a short VFR x-c from KLBE to KBVI.

As you can see, BVI is a Class D under Pittsburgh bravo. Now I've flown under the bravo and transitioned through it just fine, but haven't done this. Assuming I get the ok to transition the bravo at 4500', what can I expect to hear as I approach BVI?
Will they just hand me off to the tower 10 or so miles out? Will they ask to me to descend below the 4000' bravo and have me squawk 1200?
