"License to kill" A bit morbid, but probably true enough.
Fortunately, I scheduled my cross countries when there was actual, so I've
got about 10 hours... enough to know you need to be sharp. Actually, (at
least with the safety of an instructor with me), I prefer actual to the
friggin' hood. For now, I'm looking at pretty conservative ceilings, and
plan on poking up through and down from benign layers. Fortunately, my
base airport has a LOC/DME, and my training airport (10 min to west) has
an ILS down to 400'. Both of these I'm very comfortable with, having done
a lot of training there.
