Part 61.129 (iv) for airplane single engine rating states "One 2-hour cross country flight in a single engine airplane in nighttime conditions that consists of a total straight-line distance of more than 100 nautical miles from the original point of departure;"
I have an XC flight in my logbook from KLGU-KTWF-KLGU. Straight line distance from KLGU-KTWF is 124 NM. Total flight time there and back was 3.0 hours however only 2.7 of that flight was logged as night time. The entire flight after doing a touch and go at KTWF back to KLGU was all night. This flight was written in my logbook as one entry.
I asked a DPE if that satisfies 61.129 (iv) and he said he doesn't think so as the entire entry should be at night and it would be safest to redo that flight to make sure that it isn't a problem.
What do you guys think? Does that flight satisfy 61.129 (iv)?
