-"You are planning to fly from A to B"
-"Yes"
-"But the actual and forecast weather indicate that it will be IMC on that flight"
-"I know"
-"You can not legally do that unless you have an IR or IMC"
-"I know"
-"So You are not going to fly from A to B then?"
-"Yes I am - I am going to remain VMC at all times"
"How?"
"Because I'm psychic, and I have a strong feeling that the weather will change, and the forecast will be wrong.
"And if there isn't?"
"Then - and only then - I'll change my plans".
Stupid and unrealistic? Very probably. Pilot is missing a screw or two? Maybe. But illegal? NO!!!!!
Unless, as so many of us have requested, DFC, you tell us precisely where this is stated to be against the law.
