What was the reasoning for no IFR in Class G?
It was forbidden under Hitler and we donīt change things lighthearted and without pressure.

Seriously, nobody really knows. Some guy in an office decided that you can`t fly IFR below the MRVA (Minimum Radar Vectoring Altitude), an altitude you as a pilot usually donīt know btw... go figure.

At least we have airspace F, which in some case allow a relatively cheap IFR departure/approach possibility. Now EASA wants to take that away.

I for one think the Belgian Example should lead the way: no Government for more than a year and everything worked at least as good or bad as before....
