ssg, your post is about the level that one would expect from someone who feels the need to include "martial arts" in his profile (for sure you can't be a she)

I fly my light twin often on business, and have flown with people who are professional pilots, who have scared me sh1tless, and "non-professionals" who are great operators. Professional is a mind set, not just doing it for pay.

Personally, and these are my own limits, night IFR in bad weather would never be a single pilot operation for me, too much workload in the event of an important failure like the AI for example. A second pilot in that case, would be able to take control, transitioning to the right side instruments, or at least share the workload if both sides were down and standbys were all that were available.

Sometimes what is legal is not always what is sensible.
