aa,

Fair play, good post.

For me what this highlights is a genuine issue with current training methodology.

Seems more emphasis needs placing on giving students an understanding that flying 5 hours under the hood is no substitute for genuine IMC. PPLs who complete a rate 1, 180 degree turn wearing foggles ought to understand this does not give licence to go IMC under any circumstances.

At least if more pilots see that reality through this video, the accident wasn't totally in vain.

Keep out of the white stuff, and happy flying 🚁
