The point I was trying to make is that the foggles DO NOT in any way equip a pilot effectively for flight in IMC - despite what the JAR regulators would try and have us believe. The 5 hour instrument flying element to the current JAR PPL(H) syllabus must be the only part of any flying course I'm aware of, either private, professional or military, that is effectively teaching the student to fly the aircraft in an 'illegal' manner.
I firmly believe that this requirement is wrong, and if it isn't already, will very soon be responsible for fatalities.
