To quote Savatage (one of my favorite metal bands):

"Lord bring on the night
Wrap it all around me
Let it hold me tight
Soak up all that I bleed

And I'll fly away
Yeah I'll fly away
Yeah I'll fly away
Watch me"

That "bleed" part is especially true about me.

I'd love to see night return in at least one arena.  I always enjoyed night the way it was and could never understand why so many people hated it.

I agree with the night flying is FUN contingent! Also, that even 1 hour of night is preferrable to none, and that 3 hours of washed out windscreens when flying east or west is a real downer.  Just a little tweak on the clouds and wind would be good as well (maybe a 5 or 10 knot wind and a few more clouds). Perma daylight: BAD!

Night time flying is the one thing I really look forward to on AH, and it's unfortunate it only happens for a short time once a year.  I say bring back night flying.

Toolshedders love night because they can be even more sneaky and avoid fighting other human opponets.

Make it noon 24/7.

Apperantly most don't know or forgot why they got rid of night in the first place.

You have 2 MA's now...  Would not hurt to play with night a bit in one while leaving the other be.  Whats wrong with variety?

I hope that as a community we could use the power of voice to get HT
to add night for 1 hour to just 1 of the arenas. Heck it could add color to mid or early and help the low usage of said arenas.

Coad some mean night fighters and I'd be for it.  Night in its current form is a gamey and pointless.

Stang has a point, reason why night was dropped in the first place people whined long and hard about it to go.

Why would you play an online aerial combat game with the sole intention of hiding from the other players?
