Entering into IMC...

Here is the next bi-weekly question from Radek!

We all remember being taught to exit IMC to VMC by a 180degree turn back... but is that the best option? Do you think it would be saferto do something else?

Two guys flew a C-150 into a cloud. Recognizing their predicament, one blurted out: "Lets do a 360 and get the heck out of here!"

They have never been seen or heard from since.

Do you mean exiting IIMC with a 180 degree turn back to VFR?
