Cloud flying is not legal in the US or Brazil, unless you're in an IFR
flight plan.


As with most rules it's the exceptions that are worth knowing. In USA
no intrument flight plan is required for flight in instrument
conditions when not in controlled airspace. There is a class G area
near Bagdad, Arizona, that I have been thinking of using for years.
The only thing that stops me is that I would have to remove the gyro
for contest flying and it would leave a nasty hole in the panel. (yes,
I am instument rated in airplanes and current).

Is there really a place named Baghdad in Arizona, or You're just joking?

Hi Januz,

No joke. Bagdad, not Baghdad, is a small mining town about 80 miles
North West of Phoenix. We use the airport as a contest turnpoint.

In Polish, Baghdad is written "Bagdad" so it looked funny...
