FS2004 IFR practice
Are there parts of the worldwhere ifr conditions are prevalent?
I need some practice... My first try was a flight in Austria. I have tried landings at Innsbruck but the Controller tries to get my Cessna 172 to 13000ft then asks me 6miles from the airport whether it is in sight. Is it my inexperience showing here or would I be better off with a dive bomber :0) I have tried setting the weather conditions to foggy but weather tends to be normal at the destination. Any help for this novice appreciated Rog

I flew a few ILS approaches last Friday with ceilings just above MDA... Did you set the ceiling height, visibility etc?? I set the Weather Theme to Fogged In, that must just apply to the airport I was sitting in. Taking note of the options I can now see what you are refering to. Thanks for steering me in the right direction. Rog

Rog When you set the weather for shooting approaches, its also very important to slide the rate of change to none otherwise your nice low minimum ceilings may break up and dissapear

another thing you could do is fly on a network like VATSIM. This would
allow you to practice IFR like the real thing with human controllers and not bots.
