Oh leave the man alone, I think that you could find a few repetitive questions by me too.

It's a legitimate concern - why not leave those prepared to provide a meaningful answer to do so, and just leave the thread if you're not interested in engaging with it.

As an amateur flyer my rear puckers up with a healthy dose of trepidation upon entering clouds, if it paralysed me with fear as I think the OP is describing (especially after all the tickets/training he’s got) then that’s a dangerous and unhealthy situation that would see me either hanging up the headsets or staying strictly VFR.

A little bit of fear is good ..... it makes you careful!
