Line Up and Wait
Now that I have my instrument rating, my CFII told me to file everything as IFR, even if it is VMC, so that I get experience working in the system. I have no argument with that, and quite enjoy flying under IFR. But I wonder if I am creating an unnecessary burden for ATC. On the one hand, I can imagine then wondering why the hell I'm filing IFR in VMC, but then I wonder if I make it easier for them because they know where I plan to go, and I am required to fly my clearance.
I would appreciate any insights. I plan to continue filing IFR for every XC for awhile. Just curious how doing so might affect the system, either positively or negatively.
