I’m going to be doing IFR soon and I’ve already decided to train using analog. Price wise, Pt141 the minimum is 35 hours, so it’s about 7500$ for the 172/DA40. I know some don’t get the minimum, but I got my ppl over three years in Pt61 with 45hrs. For the 152 it’s about 6000$. I weigh 170 so weight shouldn’t be an issue. But I heard for the 250nm cross country with IFR reserves may be an issue. My instructor should be around 150. I trained in an analog 172, so should I continue in it for IFR. I’m worried that if I train to fly an IFR approach with the DA40’s stick I’ll have the wrong muscle memory. I have flown the DA40 a couple times though.
Thanks
