PPL Night Rating Qualification Course

The Night Rating Qualification is the perfect addition to a PPL.  The course is only 5 hours long, of which 3 hours must be completed with an instructor. You will also have to complete 5 take-offs and landings at night as a solo exercise.

During the course you will complete night circuits, navigation and emergencies. There are no flight tests during the Qualification, or exams.

On completion of the Night Rating Qualification you will be entitled to fly between official night and official day (30 minutes after sunset, and 30 minutes before sunrise respectively). This can provide amazing views, as well as providing more variety and experience to your flying.

Night flying can be a serene and very special experience and is one of the easiest qualifications to add to your licence.  The qualification can be achieved on either one of our EFIS Garmin 1000 equipped DA40 Diamond Stars or DA42 Twin Star, or one of our standard DA40 Diamond Stars.

To gain this rating/qualification, you must complete the following:

Night Rating Qualification Requirements

	5 hours night flying of which 1 hour must be dual navigation.
	5 solo flights (including a night take-off and landing each time).

There are no ground or flight tests for the Night Qualification.

Please note that Shoreham Airport's opening hours make this a suitable qualification to attain during the winter.
