The biggest problem I have had in the area is the transition from MYR
Approach to CRE ... he hands you off when you are right at the CRE airspace or
already in it ... you call CRE and tell them and they act like they have never
heard of you .. which they probably haven't since MYR Approach just terminates
your flight at a horrible time giving you absolutely no time to contact CRE
before busting into their space.
When MYR ask do you have CRE in sight .... say no until he has to give you
over to tower ... or don't use MYR for flight following.

I see your problem- what's "flight following?" ;-)
Maybe try, "Myrtle Approach, 910LL has Grand Strand in sight (even if
you don't); request frequency change to Ass Hat on 124 point 6 before
I bust his airspace, over."
Y'all have a happy New Year's celebration and we'll catch up with the
gang later in the new year.

Not me!
He's never actually been a jerk to me.
I follow ALL FAA regulations and procedures to-the-letter and never
make any mistakes! <grin>
It could also be that he recognized the call-signs of the planes I
rented as being local and didn't want to stir things up too bad.
Truthfully, though, I probably did always contact him outside his
airspace.
I've actually been surprised that some of my landings didn't elicit
some kind of response from the tower:
"Nice carrier-trap lieutenant" or "WOW! I didn't know the landing
gear on a skyhawk was that strong!"

With that in mind, I did not talk to MYR, I just called CRE 20 miles out.
All went find until on 2 mile BASE to 05, at 175 knots, he told me to turn
LEFT to downwind to be number two behind a skylane who was just entering a
downwind from the north. Huh!? It all went down hill from there.......

During 3 VMC IFR approaches to Grand Strand 3-5 years ago I noticed that
there seems to be no communication between Myrtle approach and the
tower. Having them in sight 6 miles out seems about right. Easy to do
once you've been there a few times.
Some places work better than others.

Don't remember flying with him, but I think I may have taught him to
drink.
Thanks, Cappy
The one about having an accident because they moved the bathroom to the
back of the plane reminded me of you.
