Question Flying through broken cloud
Simple, possilbily stupid question.

Picture the scene - idyllic British summers day - 4/8ths cumulus cloud at 2000’ – cotton balls no more than 500’ high. Can you fly through the gaps on a normal PPL? My take is no – on the basis that you can’t go near cloud whatever, but just checking.

Is this another good reason to do the IMC?
