I am reminded of a prospective pilot my employer was interviewing: what
would he do if he stumbled into a thunderstorm. Expecting the usual
techniques, I was surprised to hear him say: "I don't go into
thunderstorms". My boss kept pushing him on the subject: "Well, if you
somehow did, what would you do?" The prospect kept bleating he didn't fly
in thunderstorms. Well, I don't either, willingly, but sometimes they're
hiding out there. He might as well have said he didn't ever fly in real
IFR. He didn't get the job.

What is the answer your boss wants to hear?


Lower your seat all the way, put on your hat, tighten your seat belt *tight*,
turn up the instrument lights to their brightest setting (day or night), reduce
power, reduce speed to maneuvering speed, say a prayer. Did I forget anything?
