Hi!

Tried doing a bit of research on the web to no avail..looking for some
"practical" experience.
Next weekend, I'm gonna be flying into Midway (Chicago, IL)...arriving from
the Northwest. I'll be VFR in an Arrow.
(As much as I hate the Mayor for tearing up Meigs).

My "Direct" path would take me right through the middle of Chicago's Class
B, directly over O'Hare.
I'm fairly sure that they would *not* let me do this (considering it
would be about 5-6pm on Friday)...

I have all of the charts (Chicago Sectional/TAC)....and a fair amount of
experience dealing with busy (class B) airspace..but this will be the first
time inside of Chicago's airspace.

What do y'all do in the vincinity of Chicago? I am thinking the best idea
is to "fly around the west side of the class B and approach from the
southwest"...

Any practical experiences to share?

Thanks in advance!!

Mark
