Sorry... Forgot to mention the concept of cancelling in
the air once airport is in sight... NY likes it much better
that way...

The fact that VFR minimums in class G are 1 mile and
clear of clouds is not to encourage VFR pilots to go fly
in that, but to make it legal for instrument pilots to complete
approaches where the visibility minimums are 1 mile in the
class G airspace...


VFR minimums have nothing to do with IFR approaches.
