Default Cloud Flying

I fully understood that we were talking IFR Flight.

The only additional requirement I can find for IFR flight in Class G
airspace is that the pilot be instrument rated and Current. Note: that
an airplane instrument rating is valid in a glider.

I was recently flying with a group of 15 glider pilots I believe at
least 3 of these pilots also had instrument ratings.

In Class D & E airspace a Clearance is a also required.

In Class ABC Airspace a Transponder is required with the current
inspections.

I am looking forward to seeing his book on cloud flying, This is
defiently a topic that does not get much attention in the US and as
result there seems to be a lot of misinformation about it as evidenced
by this thread.
