Many thanks, very interesting.

I'll tell you what...
..that was bloody scary!.... ....!

..and the reason that I only Sim fly under perfect flying conditions, in General Aviation aircraft!

Although I have Sim flown in IFR and IMC conditions for practice, it is something I rarely do, much preferring to fly under full VFR conditions, and always avoiding clouds, or anything which will limit my visibility.
Even with failing gyros, providing that I have a full, clear view of my surroundings, I can control the aircraft safely.

If flying conditions are unsuitable...I stay on the ground, sit in the FBO, and drink Coffee until the weather improves!

If the weather looks bad on the horizon during flight, I go somewhere else!

I do the same thing on my Motor-bike!

Paul....playing with clouds is a dangerous past-time....in the air...and on the ground!... ...!
