Interesting view through the Max-Viz system on a Cessna 182T G1000 MFD display on short final for RWY 1L at ICT just before go-around.

It is after nightfall and you can see the runway edge lights, the enhanced touchdown zone and runway centerline lights clealy on the display.

it is interesting that you can clearly see the clouds in the sky from thier heat trace. We could not see these at all through the windshield.

It is amazing the technology that are in moden GA aircraft

Not a bit nerve-wracking?

Rather you than me, I think! But I'd enjoy sitting behind you in the plane, that's sure!

Have you ever flown a plane? It is really easier than you may think! The rules you have to obey are hard, but the 'driving' is realatively easy. I have not flown in a while, so my skills were a bit rusty. It does take practice to keep your skills sharp.

Yes I have, but I found landing to be the scariest bit, so that's why I said what I did.
I guess all skills are like that!

You should try it between layers of cloud too, the IR picture shows them in good definition.

We were VFR and had to stay out of them.
