Getting an instrument rating is probably the hardest rating to get.


It's hard because of the navigation and approach procedures. None of them
is needed for simple cloud flying. Just flying by reference to gyros is
pretty simple.


True, but in the USA there is no glider instrument rating. You must first
get an airplane instrument rating and all that implies.
