Minor nit: You can fly at night with a Private Pilot's certificate, but it must be under VFR like all your daytime flying.
- blueslurpee 4y agoThis differs in Europe, where some NAA's view night flying as equivalent to IFR.
- bombcar 4y agoEurope is weird about private license; so much so that a vast majority of people in Europe instead travel to the US for a few months to learn flying. Night flying over LA is great; night flight over the desert or the Midwest away from cities can be effectively IFR; VFR private licenses require some IFR time but I highly recommend spending some time on instruments if you’re going to VFR at night. And VFR over the top at night I just don’t recommend unless you have an IFR rating.
