Here in the San Frnacisco Bay Area we get a marine layer which is low clouds 300 feet up and 200 feet thick. 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.

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!
