NIGHT FLYING

Expand your flying privileges

A night rating lets you fly after dark, adding more flexibility to your schedule and making it easier to complete flights during shorter winter days.

Develop strong night-navigation skills

Flying at night teaches you to navigate using city lights, beacons, and instruments. Landmarks look different after dark, so the skills you learn build your confidence and competence.

Strengthen your instrument flying

Night flying naturally improves your instrument scan and precision. You become more confident relying on instruments, which is excellent preparation for more advanced training.

Experience peaceful, rewarding flying

Night flights often bring calm air, beautiful views, and a completely different atmosphere. Many pilots find it one of the most enjoyable ways to fly.

Build a pathway towards higher ratings

A night rating lays solid groundwork for future instrument or commercial training. It gives you a stronger foundation as you progress in aviation.
