The Night Rating

By adding the Night Rating to your PPL or LAPL, you will be able to exercise the privileges of your licence at night under VFR.

This course includes 4 hours of dual training at night, including a dual navigation sortie, plus an hour of solo circuits.

There is no flight test or ground examination for the Night Rating but some ground school will be required. Ground school is available from our online ground school portal.

The Night Rating course can be undertaken either post-completion of a LAPL/PPL course (LAPL holders will require a minimum of 1 hours instrument training) or integrated within a PPL course.
