Best place for a command instrument rating

[Ash767]

Hmmm. I think you will have enough on your plate when you are doing the IFR rating without having to worry about weather. Just don't look out.

Cloud is good to experience, but you want to get the procedures down pat without having to fight turbulence at the same time.

Have a read of a book called Weather Flying by Robert N Buck. You should get some good tips out of it.

Cape york used to be very good years ago, but seem to have lost the plot recently at least as far as training goes. I can recommend Bob Harris at IFL, he does an excellent job, and the WX there is usually very wet which is ideal for IFR training, close proximity to CS is also good for the ILS/LLZ and CTA exposure. He is very well known and regarded in Northern QLD, I have flown with blokes that have done there rating with him and they have all been very competent indeed.

Hope this helps

Cheers
