The idea is know what the prevailing conditions and know what you're getting into. Rather than going out there and being surprised.
Thats the prior planning I'm referring to.
And there's nothing wrong with single-engine IFR ops.....perfectly safe. Did it in cargo for a few years.....into and out of FLG.
Saying IFR + FLG + Light GA automatically = Death Wish, is like saying a particular stretch of road is "unsafe". The road is just there.....just sits there...doesn't move. The drivers that use it improperly and without knowledge of it's gotchas are the ones that make it "unsafe".
FLG is just fine. Just sits there.
Any pilot who doesn't respect and plan for the precip, IMC, DA, winds, etc..they're the ones that make it "unsafe."
