One of the things I did on my training was to take some .010 opaque
plastic and make shields that fit the corners of the windshield on my 172. They were about 6" high and about 16" long. This provided the vision block to the side. I did find the sun would give "clues" as you turned. "Peter R." wrote: Michael ) wrote: IMC that is sufficiently benign for the average instrument trainer is not common in much of the US. For example, where I'm based IMC usually means embedded T-storms; Come to central NY. Typically there is a low overcast over our region thanks to Lake Ontario. However, I do have to admit that this summer we have had more than our share of embedded t-storms. Then, of course, there is the issue of icing from October to April...
