178 seconds

Winter brings tricky weather. Be aware and don't fly unless the weather meets your personal minimums. Unfortunately every year there are a couple of small airplane crashes due inadvertently flying into instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) during VFR flight. In tests conducted on a simulator 178 seconds was the average time a VFR pilot remained alive after entering IMC. Know when not to go. Check this Civil Aviation Saftey Authority seminar video on what happens when VFR pilots fly into IMC.
