Hood and sim work at night loggable as night time?
My instructor claims that when you fly under the hood at night you can't
log it as night time, only as simulated instrument time. Is he right? I can't find anything in the FARs to support his assertion. What about simulator time at night? Can you log that as night time? rg |

I can't find anything in the FARs to support his assertion. He's wrong. Night / Day are independent of Instrument conditions. What about simulator time at night? Can you log that as night time? That's a different issue. I suspect that if it is a true SIMULATOR (i.e. one of those full motion jet types) you might be able to count it. However, a "training device" that we normally use for GA training wouldn't count for anything that "night time" logging would be useful and they don't really give a day/night presentation. Are you going to log it because you did your simulator work after sundown or because the clock on the simulator was set to midnight? |

Was it at night?
I didn't see it, I was under the hood. Was it dark? Jose -- There are more ways to skin a cat than there are cats. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |
