Default AS/MEL now need ATC permission over East River

In article , "me" wrote:

With respect.. The reason this will help is that when flying up that part
of the river while talking to atc they will be able to clear you into the
class b and LGA's airspace with out getting stuck in the canyon and not
being in a position to make the narrow turn to try and stay out of the class
b.


If that's the reason, then they should make a class b clearance a requirement
for fixed-wing aircraft operating in that corridor.

Bottomline: rules/regulations should say what they want. Regulation by
hoping and hinting almost always fails and have unintended adverse
side-effects.
