Agreed... For VFR flying, a minimum of a partial moon is on the list
of my personal minimums, which include many of the other pm's mentioned
in previous posts. I'm IFR, but that doesn't do a lot of good when you
can't see anything in a "less than partial panel" situation, with no
airports close by...

Seeing a major city's downtown lit up at night is quite a sight!

There's the added bonus of smoother air, like in those early morning
flights we all love...
