Excellent post! and congratulations. Is anyone keeping score on the number of PPLs being issued? I'm losing count

Some cloud has developed, and instead of using the foggles, he tells me to climb up into the base of the cloud. With some trepidation, I do so and reach it at just over 5,000ft. After a few seconds he then tells me to do a 180 on instruments, and that's OK.
I'm now doing my IMC - which is a great follow up. And I understand your trepidation - going into real cloud is a quite shocking and takes some getting use to!
