PLT OF AN SMA SEL ACFT INADVERTENTLY FLEW THROUGH A TEMPORARY RESTR AIRSPACE FOR AN AIRSHOW DURING AN IFR FLT.

Narrative

ON JUL/SAT/93; I FILED AN IFR FLT PLAN VIA DUATS. DEPARTING COLUMBUS; IN (BAK); SHB; V221; FWA; V11; CRUXX; V10; CRL DEST BIG BEAVER ARPT (3BB) IN TROY; MI. DURING THIS DUATS SESSION I ALSO RECEIVED CURRENT WX OBSERVATIONS AND TERMINAL FORECAST FOR MY RTE OF FLT. 30 MINS PRIOR TO MY DEP I CALLED FSS AND RECEIVED A STANDARD BRIEFING. MY 9 YR OLD PAX AND MYSELF DEPARTED BAK AT XA30Z. LCL CONDITIONS WERE E10 OVCST 3F. AFTER TKOF WE WERE HANDED OFF TO IND DEP AND CLBED TO 7000 FT. DEP CTL HANDED US OFF TO ZID AFTER WE WERE N OF SHB. BY THE TIME WE WERE TO MIE THERE WAS ONLY AN OCCASIONAL SCATTERED LAYER BTWN US AND THE GND. AT THE FWA VOR; I TURNED TO FLY OUT ON V11; THE ARPT WAS CLEARLY VISIBLE. AT ABOUT 30 DME OUT FROM FWA; I HAD REALIZED THAT I HADN'T HAD ANY RECENT COM WITH ZID. I TRIED TO CONTACT THEM AT THIS TIME. I COULD HEAR AIRBORNE COMS BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE ANY COM FROM ZID. AT THIS TIME I CALLED ZOB ON 134.65. THEY GAVE ME A NEW XPONDER CODE AND HANDED ME TO TOLEDO APCH; WHO EVENTUALLY HANDED ME TO DETROIT. AFTER DROPPING OFF MY PAX I CALLED THE LANSING FSS TO FILE MY RETURN FLT PLAN. IT WAS DURING THIS CALL THAT I FIRST HEARD OF THE NOTAM INVOLVING AN AIR SHOW AT FWA. ON SUNDAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE INSPECTOR OF THE SOUTH BEND FSDO. HE WAS THE ATTENDING FAA REPRESENTATIVE AT THE FT. WAYNE AIR SHOW. HE INFORMED ME THAT DURING MY RADIO SILENCE I HAD FLOWN THROUGH RESTR AIRSPACE. I HAD NOT CAUSED ANY DIRECT CONFLICT WITH ACTS DUE TO THEIR TRACKING ME ON RADAR AND MY FLT PLAN SHOWING MY INTENTIONS TO FLY THROUGH THEIR AIRSPACE. THEY DID; HOWEVER; HAVE TO DELAY THE LAUNCH OF A MIL JET DEMONSTRATION UNTIL MY PASSAGE. MR. X BELIEVES THAT I PROPERLY ACKNOWLEDGED A HDOF FROM ZID TO FWA APCH; BUT FAILED TO RPT IN ON THE FWA FREQ. HE SAID BOTH AGENCIES TRIED TO RAISE ME BUT WERE UNABLE. I HAVE NOT HEARD THE TAPES OF RADIO COMS. MY NORMAL PROC WOULD BE TO DIAL IN A NEW FREQ AS I ACCEPT A HDOF; THEN MAKE THAT RADIO ACTIVE. WHEN I NOTICED THAT I WAS OUT OF COM I WAS STILL ON ZID FREQ (NOT SURE ON THE OTHER RADIO SETTING). I DID HAVE A YOUNG PAX THAT I WAS SPENDING A LOT OF TIME ANSWERING QUESTIONS FOR SINCE HE WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH FLYING. THIS MAY HAVE DISTRACTED ME OR CAUSED ME TO DO THINGS OUT OF SEQUENCE.
