“A superior pilot is one who uses his superior experience and wisdom to avoid getting into situations which require a display of his superior piloting skills.”

Proper IFR training REQUIRES that you be put into a vertigo situation and then demonstrate that you can fight your senses and choose to believe your instruments.

Another requirement is the ability to tell your Boss/ passenger “No, this is not safe. We’re turning back. “

Sure. But again people don’t always do what they were trained to. How often do you drive at 10 and 2? Humans are human. We don’t always do it right.
