A Piper Warrior decided to try to beat out two King Airs that had already picked up their IFR clearances by departing VFR on a marginal Day.
Warror xxx: Good morning Center, departed VFR would like to pick up our clearance.
Center: Uh, I have two King Airs that I need to get out first. Maintain VFR and I'll get back to you.
Warrior xxx: Uhhh ok. Well I'm in the clouds now. Should I descend?
Center: Affirmative, and I have a phone number when you are ready to copy.
