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
adjustment period as day transitions to night.

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.

Night currency landings - video

Video is a continuation of my night currency video.

This video captures one touch and go, one full stop landing and shut
down. Video includes uncontrolled airport communications.

Looking back at my log book it had been over 1 year (11/01.07) since I
had done any night flying,

Good overall exercise for me landing on runways of different widths.

Last of my night currency videos. Thought the ATC instructions at the
very beginning and the end were quite fitting.

Privileged view from our heights needless to say.
