It is still beyond me as to why some pilots appear (according to their flimsy excuses in this thread) to have an insatiable NEED to log I.F.

What`s the big deal about instrument time, for heaven`s sake? Is it a "crutch" for low time pilots who need some form of one-upsmanship to make themselves feel more experienced than their peers, who have about the same number of hours?

For the umpteenth time in this thread, Instrument time is that time when the aircraft flown SOLELY by reference to instruments.

That does NOT include visual flight in reduced visibilty VFR! Nor does it include flying in visual conditions, "pretending" to fly on instruments.
