I know ATC Watcher must know the difference between VFR and VMC.


Being in VM conditions and losing com would preclude staying at an IFR altitude wouldnt it?

Lose com, in VMC, proceed VFR...doesn't mean stay at IFR altitude and NOT land.

Certainly look out the window and try not to hit anythig is a good idea...but if you are VMC and can land using VFR why not? just for the convenience of getting to your destination? I hope not.
