In the face of other private pilots who wish to press on in dreadful conditions I am happy to say that I have adopted cowardice as means of survival which has stood me in good stead. I fully intend that if it turns out to be helicopters that kill me, it wont be because I was stupid enough to be flying in appalling weather conditions.

Well said AT. There have been far too many accidents because of people flying when they did not need too.

Top tip #1. Dont get into the situation.

But if you did (God forbid) and are established on instruments what are then the best actions to take, discuss.
