I had to look that one up. It certainly is surrounded by humanity!
Flying VFR around San Diego certainly was a different experience. I wouldn't have tried it without some local knowledge onboard. ACT liked to use geographical features (especially the piers) while tooling up and down the coast. I liked that though (once you learn the landmarks). The pilot even used land marks when reporting his position to tower when coming back to Gillespie from the east. I look forward to getting back to this type of flying in th future hopefully.
