Hey, you go ahead and fly into Bravo without hearing those magic
words. No skin off my back.
Like I said, I will be listening for those words, and if I dont' get
them I will ask. I require it in my flying, you can do what you want.
You don't stick to standard phraseology, then shame on you.
'nuf said.
If you've already received a clearance that grants entry into Class B
airspace those words are superfluous. Doesn't make any difference if you're
VFR or IFR.
I believe the point here is, that it's incumbent on the VFR PIC to
explicitly _REQUEST_ clearance into Class B airspace every time
(instead of saying "with you" or some such):
"Las Vegas Approach, Cherokee 1234 request clearance into Class
Bravo via the Cortez 1 Transition."
Except that is -NOT- what one would do, it would be:
Las Vegas Approach, Cherokee 1234, three thousand five hundred feet,
Wash Marina, request Cortez route.
The start and end points of a transition route are defined on the TAC.
You are -NOT- requesting entry into the class B, you are requesting
to fly the Cortez transition route.
