Narrative:

Owner/pilot avoided YYY class D enroute to ZZZ. Aircraft was to the west of ZZZ approximately 10 KM. ZZZ tower was contacted and tower cleared the aircraft to land straight in on runway xx. While lining up with the runway tower advised us to call on the phone to ZZZ approach. By this time the ZZZ plant was in left rear quarter. By clearing us straight into runway xx, we were put into the restr airspace. Because the restr airspace merges with the ZZZ airspace, landing instructions should have been to enter a right base for runway xx, which would probably kept the aircraft west of the restr area.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: A BEECH A35 WAS CLRED BY THE TWR FOR A STRAIGHT IN APCH TO RWY 23 WHICH CAUSED THE ACFT TO ENTER A RESTR AIRSPACE.

Narrative: OWNER/PLT AVOIDED YYY CLASS D ENROUTE TO ZZZ. ACFT WAS TO THE W OF ZZZ APPROX 10 KM. ZZZ TWR WAS CONTACTED AND TWR CLRED THE ACFT TO LAND STRAIGHT IN ON RWY XX. WHILE LINING UP WITH THE RWY TWR ADVISED US TO CALL ON THE PHONE TO ZZZ APCH. BY THIS TIME THE ZZZ PLANT WAS IN L REAR QUARTER. BY CLRING US STRAIGHT INTO RWY XX, WE WERE PUT INTO THE RESTR AIRSPACE. BECAUSE THE RESTR AIRSPACE MERGES WITH THE ZZZ AIRSPACE, LNDG INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD HAVE BEEN TO ENTER A R BASE FOR RWY XX, WHICH WOULD PROBABLY KEPT THE ACFT W OF THE RESTR AREA.
