Instrument approaches under VFR
Had a funny situation today.
A GA pilot flying on an o'seas licence (Day VFR only) was talking about doing an instrument approach at his next destination. I queried this but he said his instructor told him, as long as it is in VMC, he is permitted to do it.
To my mind, if you are flying an approach on instruments, you would at least require a second pilot acting as lookout whilst you have your eyes firmly glued on the scan.
Sure you may be able to practice the procedure but then, that procedure is specifically for aircraft approved for and flying under IFR.
Any thoughts?
