10.9. Area Orientation. Pilots should use a combination of contact (visual) and instrument procedures and/or techniques for area orientation at night. Prominent landmarks, cities, or towns can sometimes be seen at night, especially with high moon illumination. These references can also be identified by other means. Identify prominent roads and towns by the lights that outline them (reference paragraph 10.11.2.). Review local hazards and minimum safe altitudes before night flying.
