Hi all. Can anyone give me an idea of what a common route clearance would be
from the Wash DC area (KJYO) to the Long Island (KFRG) area? I tracked down a preferred route to the DC area (JFK DIXIE V1 LEEAH V268 BAL KROLL) but I'd like some ideas from other fliers more familiar with the local ops. Otherwise I'll just reverse the route and see what they give me. Thanks, Marco Leon |

Go to http://tinyurl.com/8w2l. Put in FRG for the destination and ZDC for the Departure ARTCC. I found 4 routes from DCA-FRG; my guess is your route would merge with one of these sometime before you left DCA airspace. On the other hand, just filing something random and seeing what you get is a reasonable strategy too :-) |

Thanks Roy. I was inputting IAD as the origin and coming up with nothing.
Shoulda tried DCA... That route takes me way over the water--yikes! I think I'll try something else and see what they give me. If they do give me that route, you can bet I'll be asking for direct with every handoff until I stay feet dry! Marco Leon "Roy Smith" wrote in message ...

Below 8000 you'll likely get that route or a slight variation thereof: BAL V268 ENO V16 CYN V1 JFK. FYI, McGuire (who controls up to 8000) sends all northeastbound traffic to NY App over / near V1 at 5000 by letter of agreement, so expect a descent a bit farther out than you might otherwise desire. Westbound, if for weather or other concerns you want to go around Phili to the north, you'll need to file 4000. Any higher and the computer will give you the preferred route to the south. The trick for flying the northern route is to file for 4000 and ask for higher passing ARD. They'll give it to you traffic permitting. Once you're clear of the Class B to the west, many altitudes are available. HTH, -Doug -- -------------------- Doug Vetter, CFIMEIA http://www.dvcfi.com -------------------- |
