Thanks, Mario.
Below 120m - 400ft is also where most Rotorcraft ops take place, hence the potential for collision, a risk well managed in European regulations, both on the Rotorcraft and Drones sides.
Always good to remind helicopter pilots of this risk and provide them risk mitigation tips: that's what Safety Promotion is for.
The ultimate goal, I suggest, is to have all users sharing the airspace in a safe and effective manner.

Does anybody know if IFR time in a level D simulator can be counted towards my total actual IFR time? Couldn't find anything specific in the regulations. -

This might be a wrong community, but question anyway about new spa.hems opinion.
VFR weather minima at night. There is still cloud base limitation, but in some cases it might be ceiling.
Really difficult to understand the reasons for cloud base NOT ceiling, especially with NVG's.
How do you understand this new text and it's meaning in practise?
