Spot on! The Commercial Licence with IR allows one to fly paying passengers in the clag - and that can mean severe turbulence, lightning, icing and the rest, coupled with pax throwing up, screaming (and that is a little unnerving I can tell you!), the bloody instrument panel doing a merry dance, the oxygen masks dropping out, WHILE you check the deicing, pressurisation, run the checks and try to fly the approach down to minima. All good fun!
