Ny Tracon

after trying to understand all the complexities of FAA Order 7110.65 (the ATC bible), I have come to the conclusion that many of the FAA's own rules are contradictory and unclear. what do pilots have to say about this???

We completely understand. The FARs don't make any sense either.

That's where I see the contradiction. I am told to enter controlled airspace--at 700'--on an assigned heading, but if I climb to 2600 for obstacle avoidance, I am entering controlled airspace on the runway heading.

I haven't worked in the NE much until the past 4 months. So far I'm very impressed with the NY ATC. It's amazing how much traffic you control and can still take time for a few quick questions/comments. Sure does get busy at times! Keep up the good work - it blows the doors off of many places in the country!
