Sure sounds like it.

ND but how
ND can one build actual IMC experience without getting killed?

Come to California, fly in and out of the coastal stratus (Los Angeles
or San Francisco Bay)...

definitely. I'm out of SQL. I got about 10 hours of IMC during my
training. I'm reasonably comfortable in IMC and it doesn't scare me. I
stay very well clear of thunderstorms. Fortunately there aren't too
many out here.

My past 2 'encounters' with IMC were with thin stratus that lasted about
30 seconds each. The IFR was definitely required though but I feel
gyped that it lasted so little. Nonetheless, it is amazing when you
pop through the clouds and that runway is in thee perfect position.
