Default First IMC flight

Flew back home at sunset, which quickly turned to night. It's DARK
in the clouds at night! The wingtip strobes were distracting, so I
turned them off. I could still see the light from the rotating beacon
reflected from the wings, but that wasn't so bad.


Last year I flew 2 1/2 hours in solid IMC on my trip from Bowling Green KY
to Madison MS.

My plane is placarded to turn off strobes while in IMC so I didn't
experience the disco fever.
