Too often I keep hearing on the radio "Am I clear into class B???" when they clearly received one in the first place.

with VFR is expected to advise ATC if compliance will
cause violation of any part of the CFR.

2. Separation and sequencing for VFR aircraft is
dependent upon radar. Efforts should be made to segregate
VFR traffic from IFR traffic flows when a radar outage
occurs.

operate in Class B airspace based on workload,
operational limitations and traffic conditions.
