Night Rating
Hi all
I would like to gain my night rating. Can anyone recommend a school in the north west? If not in the North West, then, within in reason, I am willing to travel if necessary. Thanks..... |
I did my night rating with westair at blackpool. Excellent instruction and a friendly school/club environment. There are a few schools at blackpool that will offer night courses so check them out and find the one best suited to yourself. Blackpool shuts at 9pm and has night lights on untill that time. This means you would have to wait until it starts getting closer to autumn. I don't know if liverpool has any advantage over this?

I think its strictly called a night 'qualification' now..
cant really offer suggestions of schools in north west but well worth having and very enjoyable.I did mine at coventry airport with aeros. Dan |
It is now a rating - since September 2012. I'm sure it will go back to a qualification at some time in the future!

Oh right, i stand corrected. Only did mine on 21st and 22nd December 2011.
Does it really make any difference being a qual or a rating? |
Does it really make any difference being a qual or a rating? Unless of course you like motoring around the airfield doing circuits in the dark or like getting back from a flight with orange skies. I really do not understand some of the thinking with our regulators! Things which should be difficult they make easy things which should be easy they make difficult :ugh: Pace |
I second Westair got a great setup with a nice C172 to complete it in. I did mine at Newcastle plenty of time available there to get it done, i know of people flying around at silly hours of the night in order to get it done. Northumbria Aviation nice little club and good price. I think most people will tell you it's more than likely you may be waiting for the shorter days to get it done. Worth contacting Newcastle though. I guess it's all down to how quickly you need to get it done. Good luck with what ever you decide. :ok:
