Love IMC flying done lots in cloud at night,real butt clencher,lucky to never had a you know what landing,its getting expensive to fly just for fun,hoping to do twin rating before winter set's in.
Have a word with ian at peterlee am sure he could do with a pilot

Been a long time since I was there have they still got double echo (G-PLEE) used to be frightning sitting in the open door on take off but clenching till about 2000ft when I knew I could do something about falling out the door although there was one pilot malcolm that used to like to nose forward them kick a little left rudder and float people out the plane

Only happened to me once at 9000ft then everytime he flew I didn't ended up landing in the middle of a football pitch about 2 miles away trying to stop the match at about 300ft then some nice people have me a lift back

Way I see it is you came into the world kicking and screaming why not go out the same way
