Seriously, a safety pilot is worthless in IMC if they are not instrument rated...

Here's a thought....... What good is a PP acting as "Safety Pilot" in IMC conditions on an IFR flight plan if the instrument rated pilot flying gets "loopy" (disoriented) in the clouds??????? I was alway's under the impression that a "Safety Pilot" was only for "Simulated" IMC conditions.

a safety pilot isn't required in IMC. you can be on an IFR flight plan and in VMC - in that case, you do need a safety pilot, with a PP certificate or better. a safety pilot's purpose is to watch for traffic and take evasive action to avoid a collision. see the second post in this thread....
