Needed to get night current for an IFR flight next week. Since I have
not flown at night for quite some time, figure to give me an

Video includes slow flight while waiting for the sun to set, watching
the sunset from 3000 feet and two landings at KJAN.

My next video will have the remainder of my landings back at KMBO.

Did you see the green flash that is reported to happen as the top of the
sun goes below the horizon? I have looked but never seen it. I love
night flying. I do a city tours of downtown Dallas at night. Striking!
ATC puts me at ~ 1900 AGL.

Ross, I live in SW FL not that far from the Keys where this "green
flash" is to happen frequently. It doesn't.

But it sure makes for a great excuse to take a drink and a sit on the
beach nearly every nite.
