Private-rated pilot flying IFR in IMC? How does this work? Can/should an
IFR student do this?

A private pilot with an instrument rating is still a private pilot.

Richard,

This was water in the static line, not a vacuum system line.


You're right. I sit corrected.

You can get water in the static lines just from ordinary rain in a windstorm
or while flying.

Are you saying it is common for aircraft (not just the cirrus) to have low
points which may collect water in the static systems?
