To clarify, the majority of your flying at Westwind is during the day, so while there are some opportunities to fly at night, you may only get the last 0.5 of your cargo flight at night, but with the days getting longer and brighter each day now, it'll reduce that even more. Tours are mainly conducted during the day. I know in the past, sometimes, there are people who request tours during sunset, but overall, it's not common.



Right now, the company is really struggling for pilots so I'd say to send your resume in if you are at the bare minimums of Part 135 VFR minimums (500 total time, 100 XC, 25 night XC, commercial certificate, high performance endorsement)
