Default Lockheed FSS opinions

Yea, that's why I quit calling them.

I it just me, or does it seem like since Lockheed took over the FSS the
briefings have gone from relatively objective to overly conservative? It
used to be
that you could talk with a briefer and they'd give you the facts and let
you make your
own decision. Maybe with a "VFR not recommended, would you like to file
IFR?"
Anymore it seems like when you talk to them they always try to talk you
out of a
flight unless it's CAVU.

Anyone else experienced similar?
