I just got IFR in october with only 2 hours actual. The examiner said I did great under the hood, but I've only done one approach in the clouds. I know I can't do real hard IFR even though my temporary certificate says I can.

Whenever conditions will allow, I plan to get up with a CFII or another private pilot and do some work in the actual weather. However, I'm must say I'm not 100% comfortable flying down close to mins in these old FBO rental planes. Even at good FBOs they usually have some radio or instrument issues. For my IFR ride I was in a Warrior whose vacuum pump was going. I would not agree to operate that aircraft on an approach down to mins in the condition it was in. Unfortunately, it seems FBOs mainly focus on providing aircraft for primary students, and the IFR equipment seems neglected.

Just my $0.02
