I wanted to write in response to the recent Learning Experience entry Ground Reference (September 2007) and the idea of ducking under a cloud deck on a flight between Buffalo, N.Y., and New York City. I don't doubt the author knows the route like the back of his hand, so flying it under a low overcast may be safe. I've flown the route from Buffalo to Utica, N.Y.; the moisture pumped in from the lakes was something else. I didn't want to be high and on top, but I can't recall why.
