WWIII:
I agree with everything you say about the training. However, even if the training/practise is on a monthly basis ( in the perfect world) I would still hesitate to intentionally climb into IMC in an unstable platform such as an AS350 or a Bell single.The only option, then, is to avoid getting into a situation where scud running is possible.That brings us back to the whole pilot decision making thing.
