I think it's good that if your home airfield is military or regional airport that it stays open long enough for you to get night flying in.
When I was a member of another airfield, staff needed paying to stay late, if there wasn't enough pilots wanting to fly, it didn't pay to have the fire crew or radio operator remain after their usual finishing time.
I love to fly at night, but I can only do it at weekends, my work stops me night flying during the week, the weather doesn't always permit this! So still waiting to go up this season.
