10.1. Introduction The techniques and procedures for night flying are much like daytime flying, but vigilance must be increased, mostly due to visibility restrictions. The reduction in visibility hampers the ability to see inside the cockpit (checklists, instruments, etc.) and outside the cockpit (horizon, landmarks, etc.). These limitations can cause frustration and discomfort, but practice and use of basic night flying techniques aid in adaptation to the night environment in the T-6 and follow-on aircraft.
