When I fly at night (non CAT) my only pre-requisite is an aircraft with a good panel fit, there are certain aircraft only a true nutter would fly at night (thinking R22), but as for the SE or ME argument, is see no more risk from day CAT to night CAT for SE ops
Well then call me pistachio because I flew an R22 up to the city a few nights ago on a sight seeing flight.
So how does flying at night make it more likely to suffer an engine failure?
