On October 4, 2008 we had our Pilot Briefing Session on Night Flying and give you some background on this aspect of aviation. Now that we have some better weather on the way, we are ready to start the flying part of the program to allow members to get their Night Endorsement. A Private Pilot Licence is required. Five hours of night dual is required as well as five hours of night solo flight time. Additionally 10 hours of dual instrument time is required. Any dual instrument time that the pilot has previously logged can be credited towards the 10 hour instrument required (this includes the 5 hours required for your PPL). This is a competency based endorsement and does not require a written test, you just have to meet the minimum requirement above and be judged by your instructor to be competent in the required skills.
If you wish to enroll in this activity, contact PFC Dispatch (604.946.0011) and they will get your name and contact info and we will be in touch with you to set up a date, time, and instructor for you. The program starts on Feb. 16, 2009. This training is done on an individual basis rather than a group. When those participating have obtained their ratings, then we plan a GA Group Night Flyout
