I'd call that mild IFR. 300 feet above the gloomy ground is nice VFR day. File IFR to VFR on top and get out of there so at least the controller isn't controlling you all the way. Fine but that's one example and IFR doesn't restrict you to just that. It allows you to fly the whole gamut of soup.

Go IFR to punch through and it is beautiful VFR above. Fly 15 miles east to the Central Valley and not a cloud in sight, above or below. Over here, 2 minutes of IFR greatly enhances your ability to fly for sport. IFR does not always mean bad weather. > > > > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > From: skyponyorg <j1@...> > To: Sport_Aircraft@ yahoogroups. com > Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2009 5:48:00 PM > Subject: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: IFR LSA's > > > I've been a Sport Pilot for 2 years and I guess I must be old-fashioned or just old! Why would anybody want to fly in the fog (IFR)? I fly to explore and see things. It wouldn't make sense to me to fly when I couldn't see anything. If the weather is bad, I wait until it gets good. I fly for sport! >
