It’s a practical way to do it. I am in the NE and got my instrument rating about fifteen years ago. Difficult to do training in crappy weather. Even my check ride was rescheduled numerous times because of weather. I passed on the first try and that flight test was even broken into two pieces. The examiner asked me to arrive at 6 AM. I did two approaches at different airports and then snow moved in and the third approach was back to the examiners field in actual conditions with blowing snow. I had to wait until the afternoon to finish the flight test.

Are you mountainy enough in Kingman to have a lot of IMC? I realize that IMC has nothing to do with IFR, but I still love the idea of going to the desert in Tucson to get a "10 day IFR". Not to denigrate the quality of the instruction there, but the idea of it is kinda funny. On Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 10:08 PM, Charlie Kaiser <charl...@golden-eagle.org> wrote: > Same here.
