    flying into Myrtle beach KMYR

    I live in Wilmington NC so a quick trip to KMYR and often flew there for training for my PPL. I also took my check ride there. Within my experience it's usually not very busy and very fun to fly into. Controllers are real nice and the scenery isn't too bad either!

    MOA - Contacting the Controlling Agency

    I'm more than 27.7 NM away from FAY. I'm departing from KSUT going to KLBT. So Fay app would be about 70 miles away. If I waited a little it'd decrease the distance a little,but still an excess of 50 NM away.

    MOA - Contacting the Controlling Agency

    They would do it that far away? I'd be 70 NM away from Fayetteville when I depart from my airport. I guess I could keep in mind my option to call flight watch on 122.0

    MOA - Contacting the Controlling Agency

    Looking at Gamecock A MOA controlled by Washington Center. The airport under it is EYF .. brown airport. But I'm going to Lumberton LBT right on the other side of the MOA. It says the FSS would be Raleigh Flight Service Station, is this what you're thinking?

    MOA - Contacting the Controlling Agency

    That is a cool site. My MOA is red on there so it's def. active. Glad I'm brushing up on this. So can anybody tell me if I'm correct about looking in the A/FD for a place to call to get flight following? Also, side note my MOA's bottom is at 7,000 and I'll be flying at 2,500 so I wonder if that...

    MOA - Contacting the Controlling Agency

    I flew through this MOA last time with flight following, but I had departed from a class Charlie. Could I just look in the A/FD for the nearest ARTCC frequency and call up approach asking them for flight following even though I'm not in their airspace? Because I'll be departing from an...

    Just to follow up, I can find the FSS number right above the VOR box of the nearest controlled space right? I'm looking on my sectional and it says 122.1 R above the box.. so if I recall my training I would call up 122.1 and say "xxxx radio cessna xxx transmitting on 122.1 and receiving on 117.0...
