Ejection Handle Pulled
I flew at night last night for the first time in at least 5 years since I'm making a trip on Friday that will involve a night arrival.
I took off at 6:45 when it was still fairly light...roughly 30 minutes after sunset which was 6:12 here. Flew "the circuit" 12 times as the light slowly faded. The last 5 were legal night landings for "currency" purposes (over an hour after sunset). Then I flew to another airport about 30 miles away and made two landings there...and came back
And it got DARK last night. High overcast and no moon at all.
It's just like riding a bike....
...I didn't even break the nosewheel off!
