  • Practiced some night circuits in a PA28 at Biggin Hill. The first take off and landing was in the period between sunset and official night.

      +arunptl100 Hi. Thanks. I trained for my PPL and did my night rating with EFG. This is a group/share PA28 based on the airfield.

    Don't they have demisters on that plane?
    Flying at night with fog seems especially challenging!!

      They do, but they're not very good. They only really work when you're airborne, so the plane can get really misted up in run up and taxi.

    Sorry forgot to say great video.!
    I know its expensive to fly but do you need to tell ATC that you are going to sell fuel. ; )
    Sorry.....

    flat approaches are not good man give yourself extra feet above. you won't make the runway if you have engine failure at that alt.

    Do not come down too low ,,,ESPECIALLY at night aim for 3 green rather than 2...
    you do not need all the gear you have on your leg in the circuits

      But what if an aircraft arrives in the circuit for landing during your departure, then there is an incident which closes the airfield? You are then left with a decision making process of either diverting to another airfield or orbit in the local area etc. If your equipment is in the back or back at the club house you will be wishing you'd planned ahead...
