Thanks for the advice.Here goes:
I have a singapore PPL.I went up north to an airfield in Malaysia for an air carnival.The weather was very marginal when we left.
About half way there wx deterioted to IMC.Where I flew in instrument conditions for about 1hr.- Cloud base 800ft,rain.vis 1km.I did not feel comfortable at all but the rhs pilot[SQ capt] was having a great time up there with the Garmin!.
i guess after that expreience i figured it would a good stepup to progress to a IFR rating.
I am open to any suggestions.Its a toss up between AUS and UK but i have to be in London for an extended time anyways.
Thanks in advance everybody.
