A whole lot of folks have never been in the clouds with their VG's, or at least should not have been given the certification on their aircraft. I was doing ia instrument proficiency check with a member here the other day in a well appointed C182 with VG's. It was a great day for IFR work as we were in and out of the clouds a lot. Everytime we would enter the clouds, there was some airframe "singing" (more of a whimisical hum). The owner - who has lots of time in lots of planes including other 182's in IFR said he thought it was the VG's as that was the only difference.
My VG equipped C-180 does not sing in the clouds, anybody else have this experience or a better explanation of what is going on?
