I fly by feel. I orient myself visually, either looking out the

at the instruments. I navigate visually. But I FLY by feel.

How many seconds can you fly by feel before you get into trouble.

Initially we were talking about instrument flight. Somehow, several
posts upstream this got conflated into instrument flight after a
vacuum failure -- a completely different kettle of fish.

IMHO (and this from a 1300-hour VFR pilot and aircraft owner who
stopped just short of taking the IFR flight test in '02) MX's
assertions regarding ignoring physical sensations mesh perfectly with
everything I've been taught about instrument flight.




Now that I believe. Two compleat idiots slurping each other.
