What action should a VFR pilot take if unable to escape IFR conditions?

Quickly the aircraft is in a pilot induced spiral that often ends in disaster. So in the event that you inadvertently enter IFR conditions, take a deep breath and roll into a shallow turn, approximately 15 to 20 degrees of bank and complete approximately a 180 degree turn.

In some countries, VFR flight is permitted at night, and is known as night VFR. This is generally permitted only under more restrictive conditions, such as maintaining minimum safe altitudes, and may require additional training as a pilot at night may not be able to see and avoid obstacles.
