Hi all,
because of some complications at my flight training place in finding an instructor who's free to do the required 3 hours night work, and my desire to get the checkride over and done with while I have a good amount of free time before the hectic fall starts, I am wondering about taking the private pilot checkride without the required night flying hours.
Can any of you advise me on whether this is possible, and whether it is to be avoided?
From my understanding of the FAR, you can do this, but your certificate will be endorsed for "no night flying". But you can have this removed later by having the required night training, and hopefully no additional checkride required?
Any experiences or advice on this?
thanks!
