I have read and understand the FAR's about NVG's and realize that time between 1 hour after sunset and 1 hour before sunrise can be logged as NVG operational time.
My question is, referring to 6 NVG operations within 2 calendar months, what is an operation? Unquestionably if I takeoff and fly with my goggles on for an hour and come back and shut down, that is "an operation".
If I takeoff and do 3 area arrivals and landings and takeoffs, and 3 hovering tasks and 3 transitions to unaided, and come back and shut down, can I log more that one NVG operation? Some say yes.
If so, where is the proof, an FAR and FAA ruling?
Thanks in advance...
