Greetings all,
I'm a low-time private pilot in the Tampa Bay area, planning a trip this weekend over to Cape Canaveral (KTIX - Spaceport Regional) to see the shuttle sitting on the pad. I've flown through Tampa Class Bravo before, and learned that approach control sends VFR traffic flying east to west directly over the field at 2,600, while west to east traffic flies the same route at 2,100. (The main runways at Tampa International are 18/36 left and right). My preferred route to Cape Canaveral will take me through Orlando Class Bravo. All of the runways in Orlando are also oriented north/south, so I'm guessing they have a similar procedure. Does anybody have personal experience transitting their airspace west to east (or vice versa)? It would be helpful if I had an idea where they wanted me and when before I actually got there.
