Bill's post on a tough IR training flight reminded me of a question I've had everytime it comes up. Rather than steal his tread, I'll start a new topic.
What training value is there is a hooded takeoff? I never did one during training (or since), my instructor didn't believe in them. She felt if you couldn't see a few strips on the runway you shouldn't be flying. Other CFIIs obviously differ and find some value in the manuver. What say you?
