Best route to SNF from New England...

[pho]

Has anybody flown to SNF from New England ( Southern VT)? Whats the best
route (VFR)? Last trip was 1996 and I sure things have changed since
then.. Can you still fly the VHF corridor between Regan & Dulles?

Here's the route I take from FIT-LAL (Fitchburg, MA):

First Leg:

FIT-JFK-N12-SBY-SFQ

If you can't go OVER the NY Class B (due to weather), take the VFR
Hudson River Corridor. Stop for gas in SFQ - get some food.


Second Leg:

SFQ-MYR-8S5-SVN-55J-DED-LAL

There are some small hitches along the way to avoid some Class B
airspace near Orlando, but if you're high enough, you avoid any Class D
and Class C along the way. You do fly through some MOA's.

VHF corridor? You mean VFR? No, although you CAN still fly the VFR
Hudson River corridor in NYC.

I can't resist.

Going south keep the ocean on the left. Coming back the ocean should
be on the right.

Yah. I do that from the midwest. I go east to the first ocean and take a
right.
