To Tony Roberts: I noticed from your siggy that you have the VFR-OTT
rating. Just curious.. do you ever use that thing?

Hi Kevin

I use it lots. Because I live surrounded by mountains my way home is
often blocked by cloud, so I file VFR-OTT, fly over the cloud on victor
airways, then cancel the VFR-OTT and file VFR.
I was suprised to learn that less than 5% of Canadian Pilots hold the
rating - it's a good one to have, and even if I didn't use it, it would
be worth having just for the extra instrument flying instruction that it
gave me.
