Advanced Training – 60 Mins Night Flight
A 60‑minute night flight is a unique and memorable part of pilot training. Flying after dark is normally introduced part‑way through the PPL course, but it can also be taken by qualified pilots looking to build skill and experience. The air is often smoother at night, and the view of the landscape is completely different from daytime flying.
After a detailed briefing on the ground, you’ll head out to the aircraft and begin your night lesson. Once airborne, your instructor will guide you through the essentials of night flying, demonstrate key manoeuvres, and give you hands‑on time at the controls.
A calm, smooth introduction to night flying.
Hands‑on experience with a qualified night‑rated instructor.
Night flying builds confidence and broadens your skillset, giving you a new perspective on the aircraft and the environment. It’s an experience many pilots remember for years.
What's Involved?
A structured night‑flying lesson that introduces the fundamentals and gives you time to practise them in the air.
- Pre‑flight briefing covering night‑flying essentials
- A full hour of dual instruction after dark
- Demonstration and practice of basic night manoeuvres
- Instructor feedback and time for questions after landing
-
Are there any medical restrictions?
Most people can take part in night flying without any issues. If you have a medical condition that affects mobility, balance, or breathing, just let us know so we can advise you properly.
-
Are there any weight or size limitations?
Yes — light aircraft have practical limits. If you’re unsure whether this applies to you, get in touch and we’ll confirm before you book.
-
Is there a minimum or maximum age?
There’s no upper age limit. Younger students are welcome, but they must be able to sit safely in the aircraft and follow basic instructions.
-
Can I bring someone with me?
Some training aircraft have a spare seat, which can be used depending on weight and balance. If this is important to you, ask us when booking.
-
What happens if the weather is bad?
If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll simply reschedule your night lesson for another day. Safety and comfort always come first.
-
Does this count toward a pilot licence?
Yes — night‑flying lessons can be logged as instructional time and count toward the hours required for a Pilot Licence.
