VFRs must remain clear of IFR routes and all approach and departure paths
Where did you get this from, point to a reference please. My reading of the available info leaves me with the opinion we should avoid flying through instrument approaches (which I do anyway) but nowhere do I find the much vaunted requirement to avoid routes.
Essentially, that is impossible unless I adopt the same navigation techniques I use in my yacht!!
The smart thing (which we probably all do anyway) is, if VFR in VMC avoid non-quadrantal in E or G above LSALT. But then, if it is VMC why fly 'on the dials'???
