Default IFR just 5.4% of the time

Around here, I'd say it's well upwards of 50% of IFR conditions are
unflyable in my plane, regardless of pilot rating.


In the spring, summer, and fall, very little of the IMC is unflyable in my plane
here in the northeast. Thunderstorms are not that wide-spread and much easier
to see coming with strikefinders, stormscope, in-flight weather. It's the dang
ice that's a problem and the occasional low low low IMC.
