I've traveled from White Plains NY to Burke Lakefront monthly for the past
year. Most times they offer Class B clearance before asking.

They may give you an altitude change but will probably clear you through.
It's usually not until you're east of the Poconos (around Wilkes-Barre) that
they start giving you extensive routing.

I have a fairly new Instrument Rating and need to fly my (non-turbo) Arrow
from Chicago to Binghamton NY.

The most efficient dry route appears to be V6 via Dryer, but that takes me
right through the middle of the Cleveland Class B. Is this likely to be
accepted as filed, or am I likely to get vectored extensively out of the
way? I need to know for fuel planning (old Arrow, small tanks). The
Canada
route is a little longer and that runs through Detroit Class B.

Suggestions/experiences from any of you graybeards (figuratively, of
course)
out there would be appreciated.
