and you don't mind being limited to day VMC
A common misconception as you should know by now Genghis
There is no "day" limitation, and if you hold an IR, there is no VMC restriction, other than in CAS. So in G airspace you can fly IFR in IMC if you wish....
Also my FAA ticket does not limit me to "Piston" aircraft either though that may be another matter in UK airspace....
