just a different attitude - kind of 'half full glass rather than half empty' - VFR until proven otherwise

It all depends on what sort of VFR flyer you are.
If its blue skies and light wind then you will not fly a lot.
If you enjoy dodging showers and strong winds and high ground in cloud then its for you.
We do not take more risks we are jsut more than happy to turn back or divert.
