GA SMA UNAUTH PENETRATION OF AIRSPACE.

Narrative

SAN APCH CTL CLAIMS THAT I VIOLATED THE SAN TCA BY ABOUT 4 MI AND AN ACR JET INBND TO LINDBERGH FIELD HAD TO EXTEND ITS DOWNWIND APCH IN ORDER TO PASS BEHIND ME. I DID NOT PENETRATE THE TCA AND IN FACT WAS VERY CAREFUL TO AVOID IT. I BELIEVE THE ACR JET WAS N OF ITS ASSIGNED COURSE AND A LITTLE LOW AND THEREFORE FLYING NEAR THE BOUNDARIES OF THE TCA. SINCE I WAS NEAR THE BOUNDARIES ALSO; A CLOSE ENCOUNTER OCCURRED. AT AN ALT OF 4700' I FLEW SW FROM GILLESPIE FIELD TO LAKE MURRAY. I SET MY VOR INDICATOR TO 264 DEGS USING THE MISSION BAY VOR (117.8 MHZ). THE VOR NEEDLE STAYED PEGGED TO THE LEFT UNTIL S OF LAKE MURRAY. ONCE IT MOVED OFF THE PEG; I TURNED RIGHT AND AIMED STRAIGHT FOR THE VOR STATION; WHICH WAS VISIBLE IN MISSION BAY. I COULD SEE RWY 27 AT LINDBERGH AND NOTED THAT THE RWY CENTERLINE WAS POINTING WELL S OF ME. I COULD ALSO SEE THE NAVY GOLF COURSE AND MONTGOMERY FIELD AND THEY WERE ALL IN THE POS I WAS FAMILIAR WITH FOR A TRACK JUST N OF THE TCA. AT JACK MURPHY STADIUM; WHICH I COULD LOOK DOWN INTO; I TURNED SW AGAIN AND PROCEEDED ALONG THE E BOUNDARY OF THE VFR CORRIDOR XING DIRECTLY OVER BALBOA PARK. SAN APCH CLAIMS THAT I STRAYED SEVERAL MI S AND WAS EVEN S OF THE NAVY TWRS AT THE TIME OF THE ENCOUNTER WITH THE ACR JET (I DID NOT SEE THE JET. I HAD MY SUN VISORS DOWN AT THE TIME BUT COULD STILL SEE slightly ABOVE THE HORIZON). I HELPED IN THE REDESIGN OF THIS TCA AND THEREFORE AM VERY FAMILIAR WITH IT. I CAN PROBABLY DRAW IT FROM MEMORY. I HAVE BEEN IN THE RADAR ROOM AT SAN TRACON AND AM AWARE THAT THEY OFTEN TURN OFF THE TCA OUTLINE IN ORDER TO REDUCE SCREEN CLUTTER. THAT IS WHY I SUSPECT THAT THE ACR JET CAME CLOSE TO VIOLATING MY AIRSPACE AND NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
