Narrative:
On takeoff for VFR flight N57 to dxr, alternate circuit breaker opened circuit, recycled several times. Elected to continue NORDO to dxr, climbed to 7500 west of phl en route ptw VOR. Probably transgressed phl 30 mi mode C veil without mode C. Later climbed 9500 over clouds abe-ewr. Ceiling 25000 plus or minus dxr area. Went northwest around ny class B mode C veil. Landed dxr using hand-held radio.

Title: SMA SEL PLT EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL PROB AFTER TKOF AND CLB OUT RESULTING IN PENETRATION OF 'MODE C' AIRSPACE.
Narrative: ON TKOF FOR VFR FLT N57 TO DXR, ALTERNATE CIRCUIT BREAKER OPENED CIRCUIT, RECYCLED SEVERAL TIMES. ELECTED TO CONTINUE NORDO TO DXR, CLBED TO 7500 W OF PHL ENRTE PTW VOR. PROBABLY TRANSGRESSED PHL 30 MI MODE C VEIL WITHOUT MODE C. LATER CLBED 9500 OVER CLOUDS ABE-EWR. CEILING 25000 PLUS OR MINUS DXR AREA. WENT NW AROUND NY CLASS B MODE C VEIL. LANDED DXR USING HAND-HELD RADIO.
