Default Night Flying. How many PPSEL pilots excersie night priveledges?

I don't know whether many have seen these, but WalMart has finger lights for
less than $2 each. They are little LEDs with batteries. The case has two
little velcro straps to hook around your finger. I have two clipped to the
outside of my flight bag. I haven't used them in the airplane, as I don't
fly at night that often, but they worked great during a power failure. The
light is blue-white, and would need to be filtered if you want red light.

Hi,
Well everyone has given great advice which I agree with. The only
thing that I can add is this
COCKPIT ORGANIZATION by this I mean know were everything is without
having to go fishing for it. in a dark cockpit it can be difficult or
impossible to have to go looking for things in your flight bag. The
only other thing I can add is have at least two flashlights and spare
batteries. I date mine when they are put in and they are replaced every
year or sooner depending on usage.. I like the led style that I can
hang around my neck red or green color. easy to find stay away from
the one light multi colors... unless it has a foolproof switch system
you spend more time fumbling for the right switch nothing worse than
trying for red or green and getting white ... I also carry a mini mag
light for the preflight.
