night train

2007 June 13 00:35

My night flights are finished now. The requirements for the pilot's pilot certificate include that you must have had 3 hours of night instruction, including 10 take-offs and landings and a cross country of at least 100 miles distance. My instructor and I did two night flights to fulfill the requirements in May, so that's one more requirement down.

The last requirement is to have 3 hours of instruction preparing for the private pilot check ride within 60 days of taking the test. This time will be spent going over things for the check ride and practicing maneuvers. I have one more business trip next week, but then I hope to get my test done by the time things get busy for me in later July.
