Re: Any frequent IFR pilots?

Yes, flying in the Pacific Northwest means that most of my flights from October through May involve some level of IFR. More often than not the flight is a climb in IFR, cruise clear above, then a descent and approach in the clouds again, although rarely to minimums. I find the plane very stable and pleasant in IFR, but I fly most of the IFR using the autopilot, so the credit goes to it rather than me. I spend my time looking at the weather, watching for ice, monitoring the engines, and double checking the electro-mechanical brain.

Cheers,
