I did my first L B Airspace transition using coastal route on my 5th flight on PE. It was nerve wrecking but fulfilling experience.

Transitions are always unnerving at the best of time, but very fulfilling when you do them successfully.xpga wrote:I did my first L B Airspace transition using coastal route on my 5th flight on PE. It was nerve wrecking but fulfilling experience.

What I could not figure out was what a L B transition was until I thought about it for a while!! I just focused on the B(Bravo) transition part and had to guess what the L was for.
My assumption is now that you did the Long Beach LAX Class Bravo transition NB via the Coastal Route!!
Wow, time for me to get some sleep!!!
Congrats again!!

Re: L B transition coastal route
Just ment Lima Bravo by LB. Which I think how the controllers refer to LAX Bravo. Correct me if I am wrong.

I cannot correct you as I am unsure myself. I have always said "via the LAX Class Bravo". You may be right as everything is abbreviated...xpga wrote:Just ment Lima Bravo by LB. Which I think how the controllers refer to LAX Bravo. Correct me if I am wrong.
Maybe Keith or one of the controllers can chime in on this.

Re: L B transition coastal route
I've never heard a controller refer to it as the Lima Bravo. Perhaps they do in real life, I'm not sure...but since we work so many fields at the same time, we might not have the same abbreviations they use. AFAIK, we just call it "the LA Bravo" or simply "the Bravo" when interacting with other controllers during briefings.
