Night Flying

[Snigs]

Hi folks,

Well, I was lucky with the weather and completed it in 3 nights. Flying at night for the first time and getting those landings right brought all of the thrill and total excitement of flying back, just like it was in the early PPL days.

Thanks everyone for their input, I'll print this thread off and keep it in my flight bag, just for the odd reminder!!

Well doen Snigs, thought you'd like it!

With a bit of luck I'll be going my night cross country tonight.

cheers

Yeah, Night flying is the dog's b's. Mind you, could have done without it this evening (35 knots 90 degree crosswind with full load of pax and a U/S glideslope! Still fun though (especially in hindsight!).

Regards

Delighted that I am at my new shiny night rating, and the fact that I've jumped through one of the early hoops that the CAA place before us in the long road to ATPL, I sure would like to see a break-down of the costs and the justification for the £63 that the CAA have just snaffled off me! I mean, checking a log book and printing a piece of paper????????? What's going on here??

know how you feel, Snigs, having had to oay £63 on three occasions (twin, night, IMC).

It costs enough to do the flying.

Still, hoops to jump through, bills to pay, try hard not to think about it and enjoy the flying.
