Sorry, but I do get a kick out of flying instruments. There's not
much like coming out of an overcast with the runway right in front
of you. Climbing up on top of a rainy day into bright sunshine
is quite a kick too. Flying in and out of clouds, and the
rainbows and the cloud canyons.... Thanks, but these things
just can't be beat and then I can enjoy the earth on days when you
vfr only folks are dodging the 20 hour a year yahoos.


OK, one of those 'oh mah GAWD am I glad I can fly' moments was the
first time I took off at night into a 2000' thick marine layer. Once I
popped up on top, I suddenly was staring at an absolutely beautiful
universe. Totally uplifting and incredibly rewarding.

It's been like that every time I've done that since.


Nearest thing to a religious experience I ever had doing that and thought
that whoever invented the sky was some smart guy.
