I have a new FX-3 with an IFR panel which includes 2 radios (GNC 355 / G5 / Pitot Heat). Why does CubCrafters put a placard below my G3X that states Flight into IMC is prohibited? It's in the POH as well. Please don't reply with "You're the manufacturer..." - I know that. I just want to understand where this IMC prohibited comes from and why. I reviewed my AW certificate, don't see anything there. Should CubCrafters NOT put this placard below the G3X with IFR equipped aircraft?
Let me add, I have ZERO intention or desire to fly IMC. I'm instrument rated and have plenty of IFR/IMC experience from my Air Force days. That's long ago, I'm neither proficient nor current. I am in the process of learning GPS approaches only for the curiosity, no intention of ever flying them IFR at this point but maybe that could change with training and who knows what years down the road.
It seems to be this placard is incorrect for IFR paneled aircraft. Anyone have any info or can explain this? When I took delivery I logged it as a squawk in that it shouldn't be there. I was given the "you're the manufacturer..." but I want to fully understand the reasoning before anyone just blatantly undoes something that is there for a good reason.
