I think, statistically, SEP flying is safer at night than during the day, so why would anyone fly SEP during daylight??
Yes, I love flying and teaching for the night rating. With the correct training, the issues raised by 27/09 whilst very real, can be reduced to 'remote' in terms of risk.
However, last year, I only completed 2 night ratings, because of the weather. It really does have to be a lot better than during the day.
