eurocopterbeans,
Read the thread - what was the big deal about going solo IMC? Lack of confidence?
The other comments about "adequately equipped" aircraft. That probably infers that the aircraft is doing most of it on it's own with someone watching. What happens when the aircraft "fails", which is more often than gets admitted, then the watcher has to do it, who actually hasn't done it in a while.
SPIFR in helicopters - it has knobs on it.
