Crab, you just can't help yourself can you. Our night flying requirements are the same as day - equal hours. Out of the military's 4 hours available how much of it used when most of the time the cabs are u/s?

In our operation we fly as much as we can at night within the constraints imposed, quite sensibly, by the CAA, company etc. No one in their right mind likes night flying and it is often the least practised discipline within the military and civil sectors. Proficiency at night is quite important when most of the shift is spent in the dark!
