@NathanG Okay, it's open again (thanks all!), if you wanted to try and spin up an answer, I'd be very curious to see it :). aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/18849/…

I had my first flight in class C (FAA) airspace. Don't know why I've been avoiding them all this time.
I had always thought that there was extra work or something on the part of the controllers to keep me away from their heavy iron.
But I was level 5,500 MSL and needed to descend for clouds - the C goes to 4400.
I was on flight following and said, "request tree thousand fife hundred for clouds" - expecting a delay or something while the controller figured stuff out.
He immediately just said "Yeah, thirty-five hundred is OK", totally causally.
Clearly I have much to learn about these things.

@NathanG yeah, class C and even B are pretty doable in FAA-land

@NathanG Excellent answer on that question! I'm glad to find out that all the effort that went into opening it again was worth it :).
