Flying by sensation Jay. To make a blank statement you cannot fly in
IMC by sensations is flat out wrong.

It's entirely right.

No it isn't.


You cannot trust sensations in IMC.


Only one.


You must
trust your instruments.

While you have to ignore SOME sensations while flying inside a cloud,
some sensations give you warning of impending danger.

The instruments do a better job of that, and they are consistent and
reliable.

Nope.



Somebody already pointed out stall buffering. That is a sensation
you DON'T want to feel inside a cloud that will not show up on an
instrument until it's too late.

If you are watching your instruments and you know your aircraft, why
are you experiencing stall buffet?

You would also be surprised, flying by the seat of your pants does
work wonders on an ILS approach ...

I'm not sure that I'd want ILS needles in the seat of my pants.

... especially when you slip slightly
below glideslope and adding power to recapture the glide slope can be
felt in the seat of your pants, which is a confirmation of what the
instruments are reading.

You have it backwards: The instruments confirm, not the sensations.
You don't need a confirmation of instruments. If there is a
disagreement between sensations and instruments, the instruments take
priority.

If you don't feel that firmness in the seat of your pants, then
something is drastically wrong.

If you're instruments tell you that you're in trouble, you're in
trouble. If they tell you that you're not in trouble, you're safe.

You're a moron.
