Narrative:
Early morning flight out of fhu. The tower/radar was not yet on duty. I listened to the ATIS, it was the usual one, then local NOTAMS. At the very end was the time the restr airspace would become active (XA30). I did not hear this. I had focused on the 'restr airspace is inactive.' although the WAC lists the time for the restr airspace as XA00-XJ00, it is not always active during these times. My takeoff was at XA37. I departed straight out into what I believed was inactive restr airspace. The restr airspace is used for unmanned small airplane flts (uau). Problem: ATIS should include the time restr airspace is inactive and also when it will be active in the same part of the ATIS. Not inactive part at the beginning and active part at the end.

Title: PLT FLEW THROUGH ACTIVE RESTR AIRSPACE.
Narrative: EARLY MORNING FLT OUT OF FHU. THE TWR/RADAR WAS NOT YET ON DUTY. I LISTENED TO THE ATIS, IT WAS THE USUAL ONE, THEN LCL NOTAMS. AT THE VERY END WAS THE TIME THE RESTR AIRSPACE WOULD BECOME ACTIVE (XA30). I DID NOT HEAR THIS. I HAD FOCUSED ON THE 'RESTR AIRSPACE IS INACTIVE.' ALTHOUGH THE WAC LISTS THE TIME FOR THE RESTR AIRSPACE AS XA00-XJ00, IT IS NOT ALWAYS ACTIVE DURING THESE TIMES. MY TKOF WAS AT XA37. I DEPARTED STRAIGHT OUT INTO WHAT I BELIEVED WAS INACTIVE RESTR AIRSPACE. THE RESTR AIRSPACE IS USED FOR UNMANNED SMALL AIRPLANE FLTS (UAU). PROB: ATIS SHOULD INCLUDE THE TIME RESTR AIRSPACE IS INACTIVE AND ALSO WHEN IT WILL BE ACTIVE IN THE SAME PART OF THE ATIS. NOT INACTIVE PART AT THE BEGINNING AND ACTIVE PART AT THE END.
