Tees - exactly what I am getting at - can you fly on instruments below 50 kts or not?

The doppler is just a handy way of confirming that your attitude plus power is giving you the desired performance - ie you are accelerating forward and not drifting laterally but it is not an alternative to selecting the correct attitude in the first place or maintaining a good IF scan.
