ACR X UNAUTH UNCOORD PENETRATION OF AIRSPACE. (W 151). PLTDEV.

Narrative

ACR X ENRTE TO MIA FROM IAH ON J-86; ENCOUNTERED A TSTM APPROX 210 NM E OF LEEVILLE VOR. TOPS OF TSTM APPROX 40000 FT AND POS WAS JUST S OF J-86 AND EXTENDED S APPROX 100 NM. FOR SAFETY OF FLT REASONS; I REQUESTED N DEV. ZJX ADVISED THAT ONLY 10 NM N DEV AVAILABLE BECAUSE OF RESTR AREA. I ACCEPTED RADAR VECTOR OF 085 DEGS AND ADVISED CTR THAT 10 NM DEV WAS ALL I NEEDED TO CLR POSSIBLE TSTM TURB. CTLR ISSUED 105 DEG VECTOR AFTER SHORT TIME PERIOD WHICH I TURNED TO. NEXT HDG WAS 120 DEGS AND THEN 140 DEGS TO INTERCEPT J-86. ZJX THEN HANDED US TO ZMA. 15 MINS AFTER ON ZMA; I WAS ADVISED TO CALL ZJX ABOUT A 'POSSIBLE' INCURSION INTO RESTR AIRSPACE. ZJX SUPVR SAID WE WENT APPROX 7 MI INTO RESTR AIRSPACE; THAT THE CTLR HAD ATTEMPTED TO GET PERMISSION TO ENTER RESTR AIRSPACE AND IT WAS NOT AUTHORIZED. THE ZJX SUPVR SAID HE WAS STILL CHKING INTO THE MATTER AND WOULD LET ME KNOW WHAT WAS DECIDED. I NEVER HEARD FROM ZJX. SINCE I ACCEPTED A 10 MI N DEV RESTR AND RADAR VECTOR TO ACCOMPLISH THIS DEV I WAS UNDER CTR CTL. I DID NOT REQUEST PERMISSION TO PENETRATE THE RESTR AREA. AT THAT POINT ON J-86 NO DME IS AVAILABLE FROM ANY VOR STATION. I HAD NO WAY TO DETERMINE WHEN I WAS 10 MI N OF J-86. I WAS UNDER ZJX RADAR CTL. SOLUTION MIGHT BE TO REQUIRE PERMISSION EXTENSION INTO RESTR MIL TRAINING AREAS WHEN SAFETY OF FLT IS A MAJOR CONCERN. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 241758: ACR X ON J-86 BTWN LEV AND SRQ REQUESTED N DEV DUE TO WX. I ADVISED THE PLT ALL I COULD APPROVE WAS 10 MI N OF COURSE DUE TO WARNING AREAS W155; W151; AND W470 ALL ACTIVE FL500 AND BELOW. THE PLT ACCEPTED THIS CLRNC SAYING 'YAY THAT WILL BE OK.' THE WARNING AREAS ARE 15 MI N OF J-86; MY REQUIRED SEPARATION IS 3 MI WHICH LEAVES 2 MI TO SPARE. MY RADAR IS SET FOR 150 MI AT THIS POS WHICH MEANS I'M SEEING A 300 MI DIAMETER. SEVERAL MINS LATER WHEN I NOTICED THE ACFT ABOUT 13 MI N OF J-86 I ADVISED THE PLT HE WAS TOO FAR N AND ASSIGNED HDG 105 DEGS TO PARALLEL THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF W151. I CONTACTED THE USING AGENCY (EGLIN MISSION) TO ATTEMPT TO GET APPROVAL TO ENTER W151; BUT WAS DENIED. THE ACFT APPEARS TO HAVE REMAINED ON A HDG OF ABOUT 80 OR 85 DEGS AND CONTINUED TO A POINT ABOUT 2 MI INTO THE WARNING AREA. I ADVISED THE PLT HE WAS NOW IN W151 AND ISSUED HDG 120 DEGS TO GET HIM OUT. MY SUPVR WHILE MONITORING THE AREA SAW PART OF THIS PROB AND TURNED IT IN TO THE WATCH SUPVR. ABOUT 30 MINS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT; I INFORMED MY SUPVR THAT THE WX WAS ON AND WELL S OF THE AIRWAY FORCING THE ACFT TO THE N AND NEAR THE WARNING AREA. NONE OF THIS WAS BEING PAINTED BY MY RADAR. TFC MGMNT UNIT PERSONNEL CAME TO THE SECTOR TO TAKE A LOOK AND BASICALLY DID NOTHING BECAUSE I WASN'T HAVING ANY TROUBLE WHEN HE GOT THERE. THIS SECTOR IS RESTR TO THE S BY RADAR LIMITATION AND THE N BY WARNING AREAS. I THINK THE PLT HAD A FEELING THAT THE WARNING AREA WAS UNIMPORTANT AND HE COULD SNEAK INTO THE CORNER OF IT; WHICH MANY TIMES HE CAN BECAUSE THE CTLR WORKS IT OUT WITH THE USING AGENCY. I THINK THE BIG CONTRIBUTING FACTOR IN THIS INCIDENT IS THE ATTITUDE BY ALL IS 'THE CTLR WILL WORK IT OUT.'
