I check the radio altimeter occasionally during instrument landings, and more
often if the weather is IMC.


Lets be REAL CLEAR about what you do.

You are using MSFS, which is not comparable to what Stephen does.

YOU ARE NOT IN IMC, you are simulating IMC in front of a desktop
computer, which DOES NOT compare to what Stephen does.
