I stated that a little wrong. You can legally fly over class C with a transponder without talking to them. You can not legally fly over or through class C without a transponder unless you talk to them and they give you a clearance to do it without the transponder which they usually will do.

However, you can fly over class C without radio communications if you do have a transponder unless you call them on the radio and get a clearance. I have class C near me and some of my planes do not have a transponder. I have never had a problem with approach giving me a clearance to fly through or over their airspace without a transponder. If they are very busy they might say no. You can also call a tower of class B airports on the phone at least an hour beforehand and get a clearance to fly through their airspace. I did that one time when visiting Colin and it was no problem. I just gave them my N number and they gave me a reservation number that was good for something like 8 hours. I have also called on the radio to Tampa because I could not get their phone number and they gave me a clearance with no problems even though I did not give the hour notice.

What have you got built in the last 10 months?? I loved the building and now I'm really loving the flying. While I have your attention I have an FAR question. Is it legal to fly over class B ceiling without radio communications or transponder. I asked legal not if it is wise.
