Squawk Yes i would recommend you keep everything very simple.

Oh by the way have a look at air law especially the section that says it is the duty of a commander to check an intended route for the presence of IMC BEFORE flight.
Its not the seat that you sit in that makes you a commander its the attitude you arrive at the flying school with.

I have seen very experienced pilots/instructors continue into conditions that sensible inexperienced pilots would have turned back in. In fact I buried two of them at Elmdon Church 20 years ago. RIP Steve Harris and Nick Harper my best instructor and receptionist aged 21 and 19.

Inexperience with caution is better than experience with bravado, everytime
