Class B

[Jet_Dreamer]

if i dont hear the words 'cleared into the class bravo' from the controller, i will ALWAYS ask the controller if i am cleared into the class b. yes the controllers do clear you from point a to point b and that route will take you through the bravo, but i personally want the 'cleared into the class bravo' on the tapes.

In the example I provided, no statement "proceed as requested," is required. The verification of radar contact (obviously pending a previously given discreet squawk), and specific clearance with heading (vector) to a point in class b will suffice.

If in doubt, ask for clarification.

As a hedge against a POSSIBLE misunderstanding I will ALWAYS ask for clarification that I am cleared into class B airspace if not specifically told so. I am not willing to take the chance that some controller somewhere misinterpreted my request.

"Is 99X cleared into class Bravo?" "Yesir. 99X cleared into class Bravo. Proceed as requested." "Thanks."

To save an extra radio transmission I always repeat my Bravo clearance with "Understand Hindenburg 1234Z is cleard into Bravo".

I'll agree with all the posts that state CLARIFICATION is always in order.
