I'm flying in Class-G (No separation of IFR traffic) while IMC (Traffic Service) and *not* IFR (IFR FLP). Will be IFR (Ad-Hoc IFR) once I enter Class-D: and typically, they will hand over to the other Class-D controller without asking me to go to "conspicuity" (7000 for VFR 2000 for IFR refers to the flight rules and not weather conditions). To be a full IFR flight (from take off), I'll be routed directly into Class-A ("Cleared to enter controlled airspace, climb to and maintain FL080") and in those cases I would have been given a squawk during my departure clearance - again, squawk conspicuity will never happen unless and until I'm IFR-VFR on that FLP.
Great video, thanks for sharing. btw @7:27 you mentioned 7000 as the squawk - this looked like an IFR flight so why not 2000

@@SaltedFishPilot you can be ifr ocas
@@davejones542 makes sense. I will and should go 2000 in Class-G OCAS if not VMC.
