CAO 40.1.5

11.4 The holder of an air transport pilot licence shall not act as pilot in command of an aeroplane in regular public transport operations at night or relieve the pilot in command at night in pursuance of Civil Aviation Orders Part 48 unless he or she has complied with the provision of paragraphs 11.2 and 11.3 and has:

(a) within the preceding 15 months satisfactorily completed the night flight section of the Flight Proficiency Test specified at paragraph 5 of Appendix II; and
