I'm going to do this very soon (after I take my FEX). Not worried about MEI as a C130 guy, but curious if anyone has added the NVG Instructor bit?

I realize not a lot of call for it on the civvy side...yet (mainly Part 135 rotary right now), but that could change...be nice to have. All you have to have is STC approved cockpit lighting, properly maintained goggles, and recency of experience to fly with them. FAA views them as an "appliance" and safety tool.

Had heard Lee Co. Mosquito Control in FL was flying DC-3 line abreast at 300A on goggles a few years back, but I believe they've retired their DC-3s finally...
