NVFR Equipment and Lighting requirements

Hi All,

I do realise there is an old thread with this exact question, but I believe the answer within to be incorrect.

Although it is referenced in numerous texts, CAAP and the VFR flight guide, I cannot find any reference in CAO 20.18 to stipulate any further instrument or lighting requirements for VFR flight at night over VFR flight during the day. I believe the appendixes IV and V are for Instrument Flight Rules only (Also note the the bracketed "Including night V.M.C" does not mean the same as "Including night VFR")

The lighting requirement for night VFR is clearly stated in CAR 174A, so I am not sure why everyone references the CAO?

Someone please prove me wrong! (By a reference to legal document) so I understand when starting my NVFR training soon.
