Instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), sometimes referred to as blind flying, is an aviation flight category that describes weather conditions that normally require pilots to fly primarily by reference to instruments, and therefore under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), rather than by outside visual references under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). Typically, this means flying in cloud, bad weather or at night. Pilots normally train to fly in these conditions with the aid of products like Blockalls, which simulate zero visibility. In this case BAD WEATHER... hehehehe...

Nice.... So flying for any commecial soon?

[tabu99]

i would have held off a little longer on adding the landing flaps...which is why he needed to add more power as soon as he did.

white knuckles......

The aircraft currently due for servicing... :-) But 9M-JAQ (a/c registration) is one of best and accurate a/c to fly on....

[kelvinhenry9]

For your info, the flaps was not servicable on the approach config. By mean, wen approach flap config was selected, it will not initiate or set to that position, notice the Approach flap light not illuminating, when Flaps to land is set, then it is set to the Full flap config... after pre-landing cx, discovered that it happen maybe due to the excessive turbulence faced along the way... :-) Actuator or electrical problems...
