"Neil Gould" wrote: Anyone know why landings for night currency have to be to a full stop? Possibly because currency for carrying pax also requires full-stop landings. Getting night currency satisfies both requirements. Day currency to carry passengers don't require full stop landings.

Do you perchance work for the IRS or other extraneous gub'mnt agency? If not, your talents for obfuscation are wasted here. |
