From almost Day One of our pilot training, we're told to stay out of and 20 miles from a thunderstorm. We're also told not to fly into instrument conditions without an appropriate rating and clearance. Yet, the accident record shows many pilots regularly ignore those admonitions. The accident record, however, doesn't reflect the number of pilots who bend or break them and live to do it again. We'd guess that number is substantial.
