Cheers chaps
certainly something to think about. I'll try a few ILS with the foggles down to 200' with a guy I trust in the right seat and see how it goes.
I seem to remember doing an ILS down to 50' with an instructor on my IMC training, but it's a bit different on your own than with an ex-RAF nutter shouting at you if the needle goes off by more than a millimetre!
