Here's one for y'all...
My pal Charlie goes to his hangar, and pulls out his N-registered aircraft powered by two Lycoming O-540 engines. The weather is 300-1, so he files his IFR flight plan, picks up his clearance from ATC, and launches off into controlled airspace in the Continental USA. Charlie's FAA Commercial pilot certificate has no Instrument rating on it, but the flight is completely legal.
How can this be?
