This makes sense. In retrospect I spent the first few hours fixating on the instruments with my instructor imploring me to look outside. Maybe I've turned full circle and need to incorporate an instrument scan on a more frequent basis.
I'll need to practise this a bit more as the skills test is August 4th and I believe the tolerance is 100 feet or so - this is the bit that worries me.
