Not necessary. I completed an Instrument Proficiency Check three weeks
ago. I wasn't even due for it, just did it anyway. Six different
approaches, radar vectoring, unusual attitude recovery, etc.
What were the weather conditions?


It was an IPC. Anybody who has done an IPC in flight knows they're
typically done under the hood.

Are you really that stupid? Why does the weather conditions matter. Show
us from the FARs what weather conditions are required for an IPC.

Well, Ash might call me an arrogant ass for pointing this out, but when
I did my instrument checkride, it included getting stuck in a 20-minute
hold in solid IMC. Not only did I live, I passed the checkride.

I've shot plenty of approaches in zero visibility, in a Frasca Tru
Flight--a REAL flight simulator--so I've pretty much got it covered no
matter how you look at it. I've certainly got nothing to prove to some
video-game addict, regardless of what he claims he read somewhere.

I know that YOU know what real IFR flight is. Anthony doesn't. His
question to you was yet another example of what another poster aptly
referred to as IMC = Ignoramus Mxsmanic Claims.

Since he posts his drivel to a student news group and has NEVER flown a
real airplane, even the slightest error on his part should be pounced upon
and verified so students who are unaware of his total and complete lack of
qualifications will not ever listen to anything he says.

This looks like an oxymoron to me.

Wow, Anthony. You're looking in the mirror again.
