et... My first trip I was that low too, but now my FBO insists on a continuous climb to the middle of the channel for better glide distance if your engine quits. 4500' in a 172 is only like 7 miles glide. Made many trips across the channel in a 172 taking off from CRQ. I'd usually opt for 6500. Not so much for safety reasons but I liked the view better higher up. -- Chris. |

I don't have a chart in front of me, but doesn't that permit you to reach the coast directly without entering KLAX Class B nor KSNA Class C? |
