The chances of your continued longevity being negatively influenced by events when it comes to IMC Flight....depends hugely upon the amount of planning that goes on before One enters IMC.

Add in the other filter to the data....that being the amount of Gucci Kit available to you....that is set up and in operation, combined with your actual ability determined by real currency demonstrated by recent experience flying in actual instrument conditions.

Said differently, if you pop into IMC with zero notice, in a non-IFR capable aircraft, you are probably about to render your Organ Donor Card excess to need.


We can have all the Rules, Regulations, Training, and Education in the World....but absent the Judgement to use those inputs....we shall continue to see outcomes just like in the Video....no matter the experience level of the Pilot.

Inadvertent IMC, just like Fog, will straight up kill you.
