As a pilot, it’s your duty to know exactly where you are at any given time. Without knowing where you’re located, you may soon find yourself flying into a Class B airspace without receiving clearance first. Every part of the country also contains military operations areas as well as restricted flight areas. Flying into these areas won’t just cost you a reprimand, they may cost you your license and the safety of yourself and the others using the area. If you ever are lost, the most important thing you can do is CONFESS the situation to someone who can help you. Air traffic controllers are usually able to locate you and help get you out of or stay clear of any areas you need to avoid.
