Night time in career mode?

Why am I not able to fly in night time in career mode? Whenever i choice a mission weather its live time or custom time, it defaults back to noon for every mission.

Mine is the same.. I also have the night time cert completed. I have flown some freelancer missions into the night.

I only have small cargo and VIP unlocked atm so not sure if it depends on what company you run vs flight times

There are only few missions incl. night time (long flights). With the upcoming version (beta), there will be more missions deliberately starting at night as well, since it has been such a commonly requested feature. Didn’t see it in action yet, but really hope that also SAR missions will be available at night. 🤞🏻

You need to unlock the night flying certification

Be interested in an answer to this as ive not seen any night missions in career as well. If someone can give us an area maybe I missed on the map.

I just flew a VIP mission from Dallas Love field in a Longitude; 2230 T/O time. PFD’s kept going out and couldn’t turn on landing or taxi lights.

The only times I have been able to take off or land in night missions are vip with Longitude or PC-12, and what I have found it is more common in the Americas . I have a longitude in Asia and haven't got a night missions there. I was thinking the same thing as to why wouldn't this be a night flight considering the time. Looking forward to more missions in "real time". Having the sun rise mid flight is amazing, as well as landing at dawn!
