Why do people confuse IMC and IFR so often? Anybody can fly IFR in class G airspace whenever they want to in any type of aircraft - as long as they are VMC. All it means is that they remain 1000' above obstacles within 5 miles and when above 3000 feet fly quadrant altitudes.
Come on, you must know what I meant.
IFR capability implicitly means potentially flying in IMC. I am not confusing anything.
The ability for a plain UK PPL to fly IFR in VMC, Class G, is basically a UK peculiarity which is of no relevance because in Class G nobody gives a damn what rules you fly under, anyway. And it is hardly worth bothering with.
I cannot believe somebody with a plastic VFR-only plane would be bothered about the theoretical and totally irrelevant and useness [in]ability to pretend to be "IFR" when in actual VMC.
