Not anywhere near IRI IRE, I wish!! Maybe one day. I was an instructor a while ago but no longer. Now I fly as a lowly co-pilot in the offshore environment.
I refer to my time spent in a box where people were having a go doing what I described earlier. Those people seemed to want to slow down for some reason so pulled aft cyclic, lost speed and opened up a new can of worms. So to speak.
I can also tell you I initially did a similar thing when doing the SPIFR flight training for the s76 in a full motion sim with all SAS and AP's off. Maybe it's just me? Might just have been my reaction.
I don't profess to know anything much about Instrument flying because i'm still at the bottom of the ladder, on a very steep curve, but I do know that IMC can and does continue to kill people without proper training and fully suitable aircraft (fixed wing included but we're not dealing with that side of things here)
Take my comments generally with a pinch of salt and my advice? Well it's just that.
I knew someone very well who died not too long ago due going IMC without an IR and a good knowledge on type.
I'm just someone who is sick of hearing of needless deaths and yes, I do get wound up sometimes and tend to type before thinking. For that I apologise.
