"Larry Dighera" wrote in message news  Actually, there is quite a bit of Class G airspace in the US. It's ceiling is just 700' or 1,200' AGL. Or higher. Over parts of lakes Michigan and Superior and the upper peninsula of Michigan there is an area of Class G airspace up to 2600 MSL and several areas up to 14,500 MSL.

It's ceiling is just 700' or 1,200' AGL. That's very true, but try to go from one town to another without transiting controlled airspace. Uncontrolled airspace allows farmer Brown to fly around the property and count his cows, but not much more. Consider also that in most areas flying below 1500' is prohibited. 500' in "other than congested areas" is allowable, but you'd be surprised how few buildings it takes for the FAA to consider it congested.
