🛩 Take your flying to the next level - even after the sun goes down! 😉🌙

Ready to experience the freedom of the skies at night? 💫

Complete your Night Rating with Progress Flight Academy and build the skills, confidence and experience to safely navigate the skies after dark 🌕

From stunning night time views to a whole new dimension of flying, your Night Rating is an exciting step in your Aviation journey 😎👍🏻

The training includes ground training, a SACAA online examination, dual night flying with a suitably qualified instructor, navigation flights at night as well as basic instrument flying 🛩💫🌕

Why is a Night Rating valuable? 👀🛩

• Expands your flying capability - you're no longer restricted to daylight operations.

• Build your instrument skills - you rely more on your instruments at night.

• Improve your navigational skills - identifying landmarks and maintaining situational awareness at night requires a different skills set.

• Prepares you for commercial flying - night experience is an important part of progressing towards a CPL or even an ATPL.
