Default Straight-ins at uncontrolled airports?

I was thinking more in terms of mxs' assertion you shouldn't learn
about those senses because they don't help your flying..

Or did I read him wrong ???


What he says isn't always what I think he has in mind. But that's often
true of all of us. As you point out, in instrument conditions the
senses are misleading, and one must rely on the instruments. Senses can
give hints as to what's going on, and those hints can be helpful or
dangerous. Instrument flying involves sorting this out, which visual
flying does not require.

It looks like a case of two people saying the same thing differnetly,
and being misinterpreted.
