How many of you log specific minutes of a flight as instrument time when you
are flying in and out of clouds? (I count it all as instrument time)
If you settle into severe clear on top, do you stop timing instrument time?
If any part of my flight takes me into a cloud, I log at least .1 for that
flight. If I'm in and out, I log only the part that's in, estimating as well
as I can to the tenth of an hour. Above an undercast but in the clear, I do
not log as instrument time. Between layers I'll sometimes log as instrument
time, depending on conditions, but I tend not to. If I can stay right side up
by looking out the window, I don't log it as instrument time. There really is
a big difference between being solid, and being sort of in the clouds.
