I am surprised that RC4 did not tell me to hold. It has a number of times
in similar situations.

Honestly, past a certain point I think they would just close the airport, or
expect you to divert to an alternate. You might also end up circling for
hours, which could be fun.

I'm sure if we can manually land, we could avoid crashing due to
weather like that. One of the faults of IYP, and is probably one of
the reasons why MCE devs won't implement any form of autolanding.

A few days ago I tried to fly a Learjet 45 from Kansas city toBlind and Visually impaired Pilots mailinglist
Oklahoma City, but I had a rude surprise that awaited me on approach
to KOKC. What I did not know and both IYP and RC4's weather did not
tell me was how bad the weather really was on approach to it. I was
getting tossed around like a toy, and 3000 to 4000 foot drops
happened twice on approach, and I eventually crashed into a lake or
pond outside of the airport. It would have been a worse outcome had
I decided to use a turboprop like I was thinking of doing origionally
for that flight.
