Good point. I'll read more closely next time.

Are you kidding? Have you ever tried to find an ANO reference for
anything?
I can't make heads or tails out of that silly document.
You're much more technically correct that I intended to be. I was only
trying to point out the original poster was in error about the IMC
rating.
If you are referring to my post at 9:02 yesterday, then please go back and
read it again - I did NOT mention IMC rating or flying in IMC, only IFR !
IFR is not the same as IMC, you can easily fly IFR in VMC.

Not to mention that in the UK a basic PPL with no ratings can fly IFR,
and only needs a Night Qualification to fly at night. I understand
that elsewhere, any night flying (as here) is IFR, and IFR is not
allowed without a full IR.
Hence even night flying requires an IR outside the UK.
In hindsite I suppose I should qualify that statement as "Hence even night
flying requires an IR IN MANY COUNTRIES outside the UK." since I am aware
that the UK is not the only place that allows night flight without an IR.
