TomParsons Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Acro in Hazy Weather" 06-26-03, 17:03z  The last two evenings, I've managed to sneak away to the airport after work for some much-needed Sportsman practice. But once I got in the air, I found the sunset haze too much for me. I would have been fine as far as seeing the ground and guessing about the horizon are concerned. But what convinced me to pack it in was the fact that I didn't think I could reliably spot traffic. And I was not about to fly acro if I could not clear the area. Do you folks think I'm being too much of a worry-wart? The surface viz was P6SM, but I think the in-flight visibility was worse than that. Also, I tried climbing above the haze, but I wasn't out of it by 6000'. Tom P. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
