3. Instrument Flying Sucks. This is something I've rarely seen

I just have to comment on this. I think most VFR flying is incredibly
boring. In the clouds? I love it. I love having to pay attention
every second. I love talking to ATC. Call me strange, but I don't
think it's boring at all.
Well, okay -- "boring" may be the wrong term for instrument flight.
How about "long periods of monotony (hopefully) broken by short periods
of fulfillment"?
Nah. Never monotonous. At least where I fly IFR, ATC keeps us well
entertained. I miss Grissom Approach...they were always good for that.
