Night flights ...

For the commercial, we've got to do some night flights too. Here are some pictures from the flights we did last week. We went on Lille Lesquin Airport (LFQQ) which is the big regional airport around here.

Simulator...

During the Commercial pilot training, we have to do 5 hours of low visibility flight training in a simulator. We use the BE58 simulator to simulate a TB20. The computer software uses TB20 performances and we couple the engine levers. We also hide the engine parameters of the right engine.
Configured in that way, the BE58 simulates exactly the TB20 .
Here are some pictures of this sim.
I enjoyed this sim training a lot. It is really nice.

We changed instructors. We got a new one who is IFR instructor as well. This allowed us to take off in IFR with very bad weather conditions and to go practise no visibility pilot skills... inside the clouds. That was a lot of fun. We even did a barrel roll !!!!! :-)
Here are some pictures of these flights.
