Hello everyone! I am posting the video of a really nice flight I did with my daughter and her boyfriend over the Hudson, across Manhattan over N. Central Park, and back down the East River using the Skyline Route in Class B airspace. It was a first for all three of us as well as the first time for Chris flying in a small plane. NY ATC was just amazing as well. I also had Chris fly for a bit to get him enthused. Flew out of Lakewood, NJ which was a great airport as well. Quirky winds though which almost always seem to be crosswinds from every possible direction... Enjoy!! Chris

Hi folks, I had an early morning trip to Danbury CT and decided to try the Hudson River Skyline route (southbound) on my return. This was my firs trip down the Hudson. Very cool but I was confused about the controller's handling of the situation. The SFRA training states that the exclusion is up to but not including 1300 feet. The Bravo extends down to and includes 1300ft. The controller told me that if I wished to descend below 2000msl that I would be in the exclusion and no longer given advisories. I stayed put but could clearly see the Bravo floor of 1300ft on my EFB. I have also read a number of threads online about the skyline tour at 1500msl. Can anyone with experience in the area speak to what's typical. I was without ADSB in today and did not want to cancel VFR advisories so I stayed at 2K. Is this normal procedure?
