You have to be prepared to comply with 91.177. We have lots of places out
west
where Class E overlies a Class G airport well above 91.177 altitudes.


The floor of controlled airspace is irrelevant. FAR 91.177 does not apply
to VFR operations.

But, it applies to climbs in IMC that may require a level-off to avoid entering
Class E without a clearance. As I said, lots of circumstances out west where
you can do that, and it is often done. That what was I was trying to say, but
you in your special way try to "trick it" just to be difficult.
