I totally get your philosophy. But I totally get other people's philosophies, too. Go to Oshkosh. You see airplanes designed to do damn near everything imaginable. People have different needs and design planes to fit those needs. Just because your needs don't need instruments doesn't mean everyone's doesn't. I fly for fun, too, but to be honest, having the ability to file IFR to escape some morning fog and go somewhere nice has been handy a couple of times. But mostly, if I fly through a cloud, I'm getting paid to do it, so I understand what you're saying.

Why would anybody want to fly in the fog (IFR)? I fly to explore and see things. It wouldn't make sense to me to fly when I couldn't see anything. If the weather is bad, I wait until it gets good. I fly for sport!
