Flight from Tyler Pounds Regional Airport to Cleburne Friday, August 18, 2023. Hot daytime temperatures. Flew from Cleburne in the morning, picked up passenger at Tyler, and returned to Cleburne. At Tyler there's an FAA designated "hotspot" at the conjoined thresholds of rwy 13 and rwy 18. Pilot read-backs to Ground Controller weren't the best; criticism accepted. Transitioning east to west just south of the DFW Class B ring brings a heightened state of attention. It is busy airspace with many commercial flights because of DFW and Love Field and a lot pilot training. There's an Airbus helicopter training facility at Grand Prairie Airport just under Class B airspace. There's a glider activity SE side of Class B. The Cedar Hill Towers create ground obstacles to reckon with. Any east-west transition in the area will require about three ATC handoffs while on Flight Following. Half-way through the flight ATC requested a 20 degree turn to the NW to remain clear of descending DFW commercial traffic. Unable to visit the Historic Aviation Memorial Museum on the airport because of time constraints; maybe next trip. Static displays of a Lockheed F-104, and F-4 Phantom, and a MiG-17 jet, among other aircraft.
