Asked by: cessnaman22 7014 views Private Pilot, Student Pilot
When completing requirements for obtaining a private pilot license, under the Dual requirement, does night cross country time count towards the 3 hours of cross country flight training? For example, in the list below it does not state under number 1 anything about needing to be during daytime only.
Dual: 20 hours minimum of flight training with an instructor on the Private Pilot areas of operation including:
- 3 hours of cross country flight training in a single engine airplane;
- 3 hours of night flight training in a single engine airplane, that includes at least:
a) 1 cross country flight of over 100 nm total distance; and
b) 10 T/O’s and 10 landings to a full stop with each involving a flight in the traffic pattern at an airport.
