Question on airplane's IFR capability

However, when I'm expecting IMC, I'd much rather spend the extra money for a
late model plane with the right equipment than skimp for a less-than-ideal
plane (say, a '99 C172S vs an '86 C172P). In your situation, I wouldn't
even consider taking the -20 into IMC.


I'm definitely not interested in breaking any regs or jeopardizing
safety, so if it won't do IFR, it won't do IFR - I'll have to look for
other ways to do what I want to do.
