I chose dawn because it isn't too dark and not too light 😉

Also I like to land onto Runways with lights 😀 - just to see where im going 😂

Yes - I chose dawn. I like flying when it isn't too light and too dark. I prefer it to dusk because I prefer the light to dark - so I can start in the dark and end up in the light - perfect! 😉

Dawn for me. In many ways I compare aircraft to birds.
Up at dawn, preen or go through the checklists as the case may be... and off into a new day! Radar 😀

I like to fly during the day so i can see the aircraft I am flying in! If it is a beautiful aircraft like the tornado i like to see the details that i payed for when buying the ad-on.

On the sim, I often alternate to touch up my nightflying skills. When flying to and from major airports, with plenty of detail, I love to fly at night, because nothing is more welcoming than arriving into an airport with lights like Vegas. Due to some MIP issues though, I try to look away, as it looks like the lights are moving, and it makes me dizzy. When I fly over beautiful land, eg. mountains, coasts, etc. I like to fly in the daytime, to make most of the view. Weather is also a factor, because it limits what I can or can't see, but there you have my point of view.

In real life, I generally launch the sim at night, and fly a quick one hour hop, because time is an issue, what with schoolwork, extra-curriculars, personal affairs, nighttime is the most peaceful time to relax and fly.

I agree with Jon. My vote goes to dawn. ❤️

Early in the morning but I enjoy the occasional night landings at a well lighted airport. There's something beautiful about that.

I voted for dusk. I usually like to end my flights around dusk or darker. The whole thing looks much more realistic as far as the graphics go.
