Good work! For some reason I always managed to do my best landings when doing the night course... wish the ones during daylight were even half as good! 😆
Had my first night flight last night with 10 landings. I noticed I did exactly what they said in the video and let the runway come up way faster than anticipated. Flared too high and dropped a couple feet for a rough landing on 2 of them. I was the complete opposite of you lol My day landings have been butter and the night ones a little rough for sure.
Are you still flying at Blackpool Ben? Just finished up my PPL and planning a night rating soon w Westair - hopefully I’ll see you around for your 5 years of good advice!
Night pushes risk up if your over darkness same as flying in IMC. If you lose vacuum pump risk goes even higher. Kind of a catch 22 flying over city makes it easier but if you have a engine out forced landing at night in city more difficult.

+Nick T maybe because it's a bit more still at night? Nice to hear you enjoyed your training!

Great flight and well documented cheers
Great vid. I did my night rating a few months before at EGNH also. Landing without the landing light is horrid :D
+Brigante Design thanks a lot! It certainly is tricky with no landing light.
Nice work Ben.

Good video as always mate, told you Bob was good!
+Dring Aviation thanks!
Night rating is on my bucket list and cool video
+Michael Miklos sweet, get it done!
18:29 Cutting corners is something I am definitely not guilty of..... Great video all the same, night flight seems a who different kettle of fish!
+CharlieClass156 yeh it was much more different than I expected.
Are you in blackpool?
What's the background music called that starts at 05:25? Nice video by the way.
Nice job Ben, I did a video on Night time flying; yours is much better though....lol
If you do decide to come to Prestwick give me a shout, I'm based there lol
