Night flying

Tonight we decided to get in some night and hood time. Got airborne and was amazed by how beautiful it is at night. After about 3 minutes of marveling at the beauty, Kent had me put on the hood. Very interesting. It basically takes all of your concentration to keep the plane straight and level. We flew to Camarillo (CMA), landed and then took off to head back. Stayed under the hood for the whole time, even flew the ILS approach into Van Nuys. Great lesson – can’t wait to fly more at night.
