sure. but if the freshly minted instrument pilot isn't good enough
for IMC, then the minimum test standards aren't good enough.
Define what "IMC" is? And how do you test for all aspects of IMC in a
test that lasts less than a month?
You know the definition of IMC. What I'm trying to point out is
that minimum test standards are, by definition, good enough. If
you don't think so, then feel free to change the minimum standard.
btw - more challenging than testing skill is testing judgement.
I hope we both agree that good judgement is a heck of a lot more
important than skill.
