The regs say you must communicate, have permission, a clearance, have a
transponder, etc to fly in any Class B/C/D Airspace.
What requirements are there for flying BELOW the airport surface?

What say the group?


To fly BELOW the airport surface is never recommended. Cumulo granite could
ruin your day

I fly out of an airport that is near a Class C with a bottom of 1400....just
stay below that and there's not a problem. Further down the road is a
conglomeration of airspace, but if I stay above 1100, but below 1800.....you
get the picture. This technique is probably more trouble than would be
worth to plan if you were just passing through, but for the local folks it
works well.
