I remember doing the minimum amount of SEP night hours for my CPL. The instructions were to fly the circuits at 2,000’ AGL and set up for glide approaches well into the runway (it was a long one).
That might sound a bit like overkill but there were literally hundreds of people doing the same training, so over the course of a year the risk exposure was substantial.
I’ve never flown a single at night again but I have done it in gliders!
