Does there tend to much activity after 5pm when they're on nights or is there just a few flights, I might pop over one evening but don't want to make a wasted 1.5hr journey

Remember it doesn't get dark till around 9.30-10.00pm. They will need to either land or take off after this time, so it to can count as "night flying" :thumbs:

about 1930 local delightful sight of two tiffies playing chase around FL 150 just north of langar, very impressive falls and tumbles, must be quite a handful for the opposition in an acm dituation.
