I was going to fly IMC to Goodwood festival of speed but didn't feel confident enough. Cloud base at 1300 feet but no IMC approach so didn't want to pop out that low.
Little bit worrying to hear that from an IMC holder...maybe the thought process should be what's the MSA, what's the terrain like (quite hilly to the North) for starters?
Don't know if it's still on sale, but the Oxford interactive IMC CD ROM is quite a good way to learn the practicalities of the type of flying you might think to do on an IMC, mainly IFR OCAS and a bit of Class D.
