Default Why The Hell... (random rant)

Okay, how many private pilots are compelled to demonstrate flying with

just a
compass alone for proficiency check flights? And how realistic is such a
demonstration; that is, how often are pilots actually in this type of
situation in real life?


Just about any decent instrument BFR or IPC is going to involve a loss of
the DG or HSI in IMC.
