VFR to IFR to VFR outside CTA
Hi
Just an odd question. Let's say I am VFR in Class G airspace in a single engine aircraft that is IFR approved and I also have a current instrument rating.
Now lets say I have departed an aerodrome such as Bankstown and am heading west. I am on a VFR flight plan. I discover the cloud base is such that I cannot get over the range VFR but I know on the other side of the range the sky is CAVOK. If myself and the aircraft are approved for IFR but have not submitted an IFR flight plan and are remaining in Class G airspace with no assistance required from ATC, can I fly this segment over the range IFR or do I need to turn back and submit a new plan.
Thanks for any feedback.
