The cloud deck is how low?

I ended up just doing ground work today, as the clouds were scattering around between 300 and 600 feet above ground level. Suffice to say, that's far too low for a visual rated pilot such as myself.

Turns out I still know how to read a sectional chart, but I have to refer to the key more. And I still know basic pattern approaches, and approximately how to communicate on the radio.

When we actually go up to do some air work, we'll work on some airport approaches and maneuvers like stalls and steep turns. Should be a good workout.
