Once again Im not sure exactly where you get your "facts" from but its not the best course of action to just make things up. I dont know how you've been teaching, but as a CFI you should know that showing "proof" is stated multiple times in the FOI. Providing adequate instruction, Be consistent, and Correct errors with an explanation of what went wrong. Maybe you should do a bit of review yourself. But I cant really argue considering it looks like youve been doing just fine without the FOI for the last 10 years.

The difference is that I'm not acting in an instructor capacity on JC. If you would like some instruction in the FARs, I would be glad to do it for $75/hr. PayPal accepted. :)

Im not going to play whos is bigger with you. The post was just a question to see if it was possible (a hole in the system), not that anyone would be stupid enough to do it. As mentioned before, when in Class B ATC is responsible for VFR to VFR separation, so then are you required to look for traffic. Thats all. According to everyone's responses, the consensus is that regardless of ATCs duties, the pilot is ultimately responsible. A simple question, which got a simple answer.
Imagine if a student asked you if they could do solo hood work in class B. What would you say? Would badger them and put them down or would you show them proof of why they cant?
Thanks to everyone who showed proof, and to those who havent, I really hope you dont and will never have a CFI cert

If one of my students asked me that question I would say, "What a great question! It shows that you are thinking. Here is what the regs say..."

However, if the assistant chief flight instructor with over 5,000 hours asks me that same question because he doesn't know the elementary regs about the topic, then I might consider moving out of fuel range of that school. And I don't know why you keep complaining about proof? Others have already posted all the regs you need.

I'm sorry for being blunt. To be honest, myself and others really thought you were kidding. We thought see and avoid, safety pilot requirements, and careless and reckless operation were common knowledge for "professional" pilots.

So, now that we know you are serious and not trolling, I'll start over-> That's a really good question! It shows that you are thinking. Here is what the regs say...

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a U-Haul to pack.

I understand the obvious. The less obvious is like I have mentioned multiple times, if in class B atc is responsible, does that mean they are solely responsible? And in previous posts, this was already addressed.

Ok let's start this post over.
Let me ask the same question differently. What is atc's ultimate responsibility when it comes to separating vfr traffic in class B?

To keep everyone separate. That is why they will deny VFR traffic entry if they don't want to add to their work load.
