PLT OF PA32 WHILE TRYING TO SLIP BTWN THE DC ADIZ AND R6611A STRAYS INTO THE ADIZ.

Narrative

WHILE ON A VFR FLT FROM CRJ TO 17N; IT IS ALLEGED THAT ACFT X INCURRED INTO THE WASHINGTON ADIZ BY 3 MI ON THE DCA 197 DEG RADIAL; 29 DME FOR 14 MINS AT ALT APPROX 3500 FT. A VFR FLT PLAN; BUT NOT AN ADIZ FLT PLAN WAS CALLED INTO LEESBURG FLT SVC STATION (FSS). THE PLANNED RTE OF FLT HAD ACFT X GOING AROUND THE WASHINGTON ADIZ; FROM CULPEPER ARPT; HEADING SSE TO REDUCE POTOMAC TRACON WORKLOAD. WHILE FILING THE FLT PLAN; THE LEESBURG FSS BRIEFER EVEN MENTIONED 'YOU'RE PLANNING ON GOING AROUND THE ADIZ.' TO THAT I ANSWERED IN THE AFFIRMATIVE. WHILE FLYING A SSE HEADING; AT AROUND THE DAHLGREN RESTR AREA ATTEMPTING TO STAY CLR OF THE WASHINGTON ADIZ YET STAY N AND OUT OF THE DAHLGREN RESTR AIRSPACE; I AM ALLEGED TO HAVE INADVERTENTLY INCURRED INTO THE WASHINGTON ADIZ. THIS INCURSION WAS POSSIBLY DUE TO NO CLRNC BTWN THE WASHINGTON ADIZ AND THE DAHLGREN RESTR AREA. ALSO; IT WAS NOT KNOWN IF THE DAHLGREN RESTR AREA WAS HOT. THE WASHINGTON ADIZ APPEARS TO GO RIGHT UP TO THE DAHLGREN RESTR AREA AND PROVIDES NO CORRIDOR TO FLY AROUND OR THROUGH. UPON LNDG AT CROSS KEYS ARPT NJ; I WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT POTOMAC TRACON. POTOMAC TRACON DESCRIBED THE ALLEGED INCURSION. HE FURTHER POINTED OUT THAT I WAS TRACKED INSIDE THE ADIZ BY 3 MI; FOR 14 MINS. SAFETY SUGGESTION: WHERE THE OUTER BOUNDARIES OF AN ADIZ AND A RESTR AREA CONFLICTS OR OVERLAPS; REDUCE THE ADIZ TO PROVIDE A FLYING CORRIDOR BTWN THE 2 AREAS. ALLEGED INCURSIONS RPTING SUGGESTION: WHEN A RPTING AGENCY ALLEGES PLT INCURSION; CONSIDERATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THE DIRECTION OF FLT AND THE INCURSION ENTRY POINT. BASED ON THAT INFO; ASSESS THE OVERALL SEVERITY OF THE INCURSION TO DETERMINE IF REPORTABLE AS AN ADIZ VIOLATION. THE USE OF OBJECTIVE RATIONAL EVALUATION SHOULD ENTER INTO THE RPTING DECISION; AS OPPOSED TO RPTING OF ALL ALLEGED INCURSIONS. GREATER COOPERATION BTWN THE GA COMMUNITY AND RPTING AGENCIES; LIKE POTOMAC TRACON; WILL GREATLY REDUCE FRIVOLOUS ALLEGED ADIZ REPORTABLE VIOLATIONS. ACFT X WAS FLYING OUTSIDE THE SOUTHERNMOST SECTION OF THE ADIZ AND AWAY FROM ANY POTENTIAL ADIZ PROB AREA.
