Instrument flying

This is a fun excersise which teaches you to fly in cloud, the instructor puts a special hood on ur head so that you cannot see outside. Once flying under the hood you have to be able to perform the same actions that you would visually except this time with sole reference to your instruments. As if flying without seeing isnt hard enough the instuctor goes further to block out some instruments and simulate engine failure of these instruments and still asks you to do perfect timed turns without seeing or having all of your instruments:)
