BDB maybe I was a bit harsh with the comment I don't mean personal attacks, I don't like your attitude though.
It is about safety and legalities.... Frankly if i'm flying IFR I want to know there are no hidden things in the clouds. Likewise when I fly around VFR I stay VFR, now it might get challenging up here but you can do it...
Now whats wrong with issuing a directive to flight plan and FLY VFR??? if its VFR???
