3. Instrument Flying Sucks. This is something I've rarely seen
discussed here (maybe never?), but instrument flying is one of the most
boring things I've done.
I just have to comment on this. I think most VFR flying is incredibly
boring. In the clouds? I love it. I love having to pay attention
every second. I love talking to ATC. Call me strange, but I don't
think it's boring at all.
I agree, especially when flying the same route many times. After seeing
the scenery 10 times, it loses its attraction to some degree. Flying in
a variety of weather and playing "games" like trying to hold altitude
within 10', setting the GPS on the most sensistive course deviation
setting and then trying to keep the needle center, etc., all keep me
engaged.
