Explaining the rules – Flying night VFR

This animation explains what you need to plan and check before flying at night so you can stay safe under night VFR.

Flying at night reduces visual cues and increases risk. Plan ahead, confirm you are current, check your aircraft and equipment and make sure the conditions are right.

Stay aware, protect your night vision and use a flight note or SARTIME so others know your plan.

Decide early to delay, divert or land if conditions change.

Refresh your knowledge before your next flight. Find more information in the pilot safety hub.
