Me thinks you don’t know much about airplane insurance. An instrument rating is viewed very favorably by underwriting regardless of instrument hours flown. The completion of the rating shows a high level of skill and proficiency.
You are absolutely correct!
I do not know much about airplane insurance!
I DO know a he11 of a lot about flying though,....with 49 years of it, and 30,000+ hours.
A newly rated instrument rated pilot...... " shows a high level of skill and proficiency"?
Yes,...... he did complete the minimum requirements to get the rating.
That is a far cry though, from the "high level of skill and proficiency",..... necessary in actual instrument conditions.
Once upon a time, I was a newly instrument rated, 300 hour wonder, military pilot.
It totally scares me now, to think about my lack of experience back then.
And then......came the carrier landings!
