Greg, where can we view this ruling by the NTSB?
Do you or anyone have references to actual situations where pilots
have been violated using "careless and reckless" due to operating in
imc in uncontrolled airspace?
thanks, Stan

Yes, but not really. The NTSB has ruled such activty as "Careless or
reckless", and violated pilots for it.
