So you've never taken off IFR from an airport that didn't have class D (or E) to the surface??? Or landed. |

Granted the clearance was to be at a fix by a specific time when taking off, and the airport had an approach with weather above minimums. I need to see more examples... |

ATC can't issue an IFR clearance for airspace that they don't control (class G). There would be no point. -Robert |

IFR in uncontroller airspace
So even though you're flying an appropriate altitude for the course
flown, theres no guarantee that when climbing/descending you won't hit someone else doing the same? On Apr 16, 9:33 pm, "Robert M.

There actually has been an FAA enforcment action that says that climb/descend in uncontrolled airspace without a clearance for obtained for the part in controlled airspace is reckless and dangerous. Essentially they figure that while ATC is not excercising control in the uncontrolled area, the idea that the "one at a time" rule in the transition area would protect you. |
