Single Pilot IFR in a helicopter at night in bad weather is a tough chore.
Anything that goes wrong....no matter how slight....tremendously increases the difficulty.
Be it caused by the Aircraft, its systems, external causes, or self induced....it can lead to real problems.
Question: Why not route east out of Kane and get radar vectors to a straight in for the ILS 32 approach at Bradford?
We are not talking about a very long distance between the two places.
That would have made the process much simpler and provide a bit of time to get it all sorted out.
Knowing the crossing height at the LOM or OM combined with DME data and other information would have facilitated a better approach.
The GPS could be used to assist in Situational Awareness as well.
