Flying in IMC
Asked by: Dawid Dabrowski 4676 views General Aviation, Private Pilot, Weather
Inadvertent flight into IMC is a major cause of accidents. I wonder why is it so deadly? Assuming that my airspeed indicator and artificial horizon both work, it shouldn't be so hard to at least maintain straight and level flight without much trouble. During my training under the hood and in a simulator I was able to control flight parameters pretty well and I wasn't feeling disoriented at all.
I understand that there are other related factors, i.e. ice and turbulence.
