I used CRAFT for a 6 day instrument course about 6 weeks ago. They are out of Charleston, SC so they may be too far away. I did the course in my M20F and they also have a redbird simulator. It was very straightforward. Like most accelerated classes you have have your written done. The flying was easy (we even took a day off in the middle of the 6 days). A few days into the course, I knew I could fly any of the approaches. Then it was just repetition. We flew about 5.5 hour of actual. The checkride was straightforward and there were no surprises. I wont say I wasnt nervous, but it was just the same thing I had done many times. I flew in actual on the way home from the checkride. No bigger. I still have personal minimums, but I feel adequately prepared.

I am at vpc, but I flew into LZU yesterday for a late lunch. There were two of us [mooneys] on final to land at the same time. I believe I was number 5 and the other one was number 3 for landing. I have a M20F.
