![]() "Jeff" wrote in message ... I think some people tend to log actual when they are not suppose to. How often do you stay in the clouds? once you can see again, your not in actual and cant log it. "In clouds" only, or in the clear (VFR) "on top"? Both are flight without reference to ground or other cues. Kinda ambiguous, huh? |

if your on top, you still have a horizon, you can fly legal VFR over the top,
without seeing the ground. But for VFR, you need a clear spot to decend through. For instruments, you can decend through the cloud, at that point your solely on instruments and you can log that portion of it. requirements are to be solely on instruments for it to be logged as actual.

Yes, I know. requirements are to be solely on instruments for it to be logged as actual. Jeff See my other post about deceiving cloud tops. (not flat). "Tom S." wrote: "Jeff" wrote in message ...

Just read it, thats the good thing about auto pilots, they keep you nice and
level and on course. I consider my auto pilot one of the most important things in my plane. You know, I think some night flying should be considered actual IFR for the fact that while flying at night you do (I do) most of your flying by the instruments.
