Please can someone tell me additional privileges the IMC rating gives a JAR/CAA PPL holder?
1) IFR in Class D-G (UK airspace only). Min vis of 1800m for arrivals and departures under IFR.

2) No need to be in sight of surface for VFR so can fly above a solid overcast (no territorial restriction on this one)

3) VFR min visibility is reduced from 3000m to 1500m (no territorial restriction on this one)

4) Some SVFR differences (can't remember)
What would be the limits for a precision and non-precision approach, and where is this published?
Same as the full IR. The minima are as per the approach plate.
the IMC rating does not prepare pilots for extended enroute flight in IMC
Nooooooooooooooooooooo not that one again
