All, am sure this has been covered elsewhere so apologies if I haven't managed to find it. I came across this thread which almost answered my question(s)
http://www.pprune.org/private-flying...ainties-2.html
I am planning a tour around the UK in the summer and was hoping to pop over to Jersey for a day or two. I recently did my IMCr and the more I get into it, the more I seem to have questions!
Questions are
1. Jersey is in class A - correct? But if I am an IMCr holder, I can go IFR down to 3km vis?
2. That being the case, do I call Jersey up asap and ask for IFR clearance to the ILS when I'm crossing the UK coast (assuming I've filed a FP)?
3. Or, do I ask for VFR clearance and vectors to the ILS?
4. Separately, the IMCr allows me to fly IFR down to 1500m and yet, I can fly in (or through, I should say) clouds which are zero vis?
I know I'll be shot down for asking these questions - there will be those who despise the IMCr and those who say these kind of questions justify despising it but please try to keep personal remarks to oneself please!?
