am not sure of the need of an IMC rating as i would still want to see the ground even if i where to be tracking a VOR.
Which is exactly what I thought until this week, when I got caught out and would have given anything for an IMC rating!!!
As it turns out, keeping a cool head meant I got back in one piece but I have now resolved that I will get my IMC as soon as I can afford it. The way the weather goes in the UK you never know when you may need to call on it.
