Uhh, I'd check that one. A year or two ago there was an article in IFR or IFR
Refresher about this subject. FAA busted some guy who cancelled when clear of
the clouds because he was not legal for VFR. IIRC, the guy busted had like 750
and 6+. The gist of the article was that unless you were in legal VFR you can't
cancel in the air.

I don't know about the rest of ye all, but the real world out here is to

be
vectored as low as the controller can give you, get the airport in sight,

and
"cancelling IFR". That way the 1000 & 3 does not apply.
