Jay, goddammit, you don't have ONE defender in this ng for your actions.
Why don't you admit a blunder and get on with it? And you can take your
"puffies" and wipe your ... windshield with them.

What you did was just flat illegal, and no amount of rationalization is
going to change the fact ... unless as most of us have pointed out that you
can SEE THROUGH the moisture.

Quite frankly, I find it insulting that we, as airmen, would not be
allowed to judge which "clouds" were safe to fly around -- or through
-- under this proposed definition. If this definition passes, flying
through a basketball-sized cloud, an area of limited visibility, or a
low-hanging tendril of virga will represent a potentially actionable
offense -- which is just plain stupid.

I think it's pretty obvious that what we were doing by flying around
Volkswagen-sized puffies, with ~2000 feet between each puffie, was
completely safe and without risk -- yet this rule's proposed definition
of "cloud" would make that kind of flying illegal.
