| I am taking my check ride tomorrow and a question came to mind. If you are not to fly in class C,or B air space unless you have that sign off, then what if you are on flight following and they fly you through class C space? |

The magic word is "unable". You are keeping track of your location, with respect to airspace, of course. It is your responsibility to remain clear of it. VFR flight following generally requires (or at least allows) you to maintain your own navigation, but if you're given a heading or altitude to fly, that would take you into airspace, simply say "unable" and the controller will give you something else.
Best of luck on your checkride. I know you'll do great. Just remember to act as PIC, and to treat the DPE as your first passenger! |
