IMC

Sorry Thomas for the vague post,

The question was, What would you do finding yourself in the clouds at 800 feet over unfamilar territory.

The point of my post was to add some thought for consideration before you leave the flight planning table. Of course the best option is not to end up in the clouds in the first place.

Unfortunately if you find yourself IMC and unprepared, hopefully you are lucky. The points posted give you a something to work with.

Been Inadvertant IMC once in 20 years of flying, Honduras flying a night Dustoff mission (UH-1), during their burning season. Flew the plan we had and got home ok despite crude ATC and some nervous flight docs on board.
