Narrative:
On 03/sun/03, I flew a training flight from pne to sby. While under flight plan, I asked the control center (dover or patuxent) whether the restr R-4006 area was in the use or not, and was assured by the controller that is was cold. After landing and taking off from sby, I flew VFR (enjoying the beautiful sites of the chesapeake bay on a sunny day) and crossed the northern tip of R-4006 en route to cambridge and then to easton towards the northwest on the eastern short of the chesapeake bay. I never entered R-4001 a or B, which were monitored with a GPS. I was not aware of the temporary flight restrs in the area. I maintained VFR, flying to modena VOR and then to pne using the washington sectional chart from 2.23.03. Upon arrival at pne, I was told by the tower to contact a pne control office. I was alerted of my violation and was told that I may get a call from the military, which I did not get.

Narrative: ON 03/SUN/03, I FLEW A TRAINING FLT FROM PNE TO SBY. WHILE UNDER FLT PLAN, I ASKED THE CTL CTR (DOVER OR PATUXENT) WHETHER THE RESTR R-4006 AREA WAS IN THE USE OR NOT, AND WAS ASSURED BY THE CTLR THAT IS WAS COLD. AFTER LNDG AND TAKING OFF FROM SBY, I FLEW VFR (ENJOYING THE BEAUTIFUL SITES OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY ON A SUNNY DAY) AND CROSSED THE NORTHERN TIP OF R-4006 ENRTE TO CAMBRIDGE AND THEN TO EASTON TOWARDS THE NW ON THE EASTERN SHORT OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY. I NEVER ENTERED R-4001 A OR B, WHICH WERE MONITORED WITH A GPS. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE TEMPORARY FLT RESTRS IN THE AREA. I MAINTAINED VFR, FLYING TO MODENA VOR AND THEN TO PNE USING THE WASHINGTON SECTIONAL CHART FROM 2.23.03. UPON ARR AT PNE, I WAS TOLD BY THE TWR TO CONTACT A PNE CTL OFFICE.
