Just keep in mind that in Class G, VFR is one mile visibility, and VFR
aircraft (even radioless, by the way) could be rattling around the

That's often what we call IFR weather, and we all tend to get a bit
careless about this stuff, especially until the first time you see a
VFR aircraft land that you did not expect to be out there.
Good point. Flying mostly in the northeast US, where the only class G
airspace is either 700 or 1,200 ft AGL (making VFR operations a real scud
running mission in IFR conditions), I often forget about the other parts of
the country where class G airspace is much more voluminous.
