As a result we flew to Albert Picardie (LFAQ) on a Y flight plan, canceling IFR in the last 20 miles. After solo practice around Albert, we flew to Munster (EDDG) on a Z flight. plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually during the night I logged closed to 7.5 hours flight time. Almost six of them instrument time. Pretty efficient night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eindhoven -&gt; Albert<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"553\" height=\"516\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png?resize=553%2C516&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png?w=553&amp;ssl=1 553w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png?resize=300%2C280&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 553px) 100vw, 553px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Albert -&gt; Munster<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"583\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-1.png?resize=583%2C438&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-1.png?w=583&amp;ssl=1 583w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-1.png?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Munster -&gt; Eindhoven<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-2.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"588\" height=\"351\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-2.png?resize=588%2C351&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-2.png?w=588&amp;ssl=1 588w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-2.png?resize=300%2C179&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The perks of night flying are straight routes, calm radio and a beautiful view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Night Rating flight\" width=\"676\" height=\"380\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OlsDyW499M8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flying at night is quite an adventure.
