It is those pesky summer months that I have to make a special trip to the airport to regain currency. Have a great flight! -- Peter |

Yeah, it's like that here, too. We're hoping to do some flying tomorrow. Mary and I *should* get night current one of these days. Hell, it's dark at 4:45, and stays dark till after 7AM the next day. Seems like it's ALWAYS dark, at this time of year... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Odd, because I actually like many aspects of night flight. -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ "Mission Control clears SMS-1 to Canaveral via thrust vectors, Up, Hold Earth, right turns, expect further clearance in ten days." http://www.avweb.com/news/usedacft/181561-1.html |

Anyone ever consider a set of night vision goggles, now available in sporting goods catalogs, for aiding in selecting an off airport landing site at night? The price has been coming down, and the quality has been coming up. I wonder if they would be helpful enough to consider buying for a private pilot? -- Jim in NC |
