So if Im reading this right the pilot said "its a little bit scary?"

 

[Fly_Chick]

That is correct. The first sentence is the direct quote from the PIREP. Never read anything like that before in a PIREP.

So shooting the ILS 9L into SFB with 5 miles vis and clear skies is scary ?

Gee guys, gimme a break, that was me. It was very scary by the way, had to be there kind of thing...

Probably a Delta Connection student.

I sure hope it was the student!

I've spent the last week flying in the Orlando area in this low vis and haze and the only thing I was afraid of was being in the vicinity of DCA.

ATC is required to include any "descriptive language" that pilots use in making PIREPS, to better pass along what kind of conditions are out there. I've seen some humorous PIREPs in the past. "Getting bounced around like a basketball" is a favorite.
