We used the North VFR exit from St-Hubert (CYHU) airport. At the first time I landed the aircraft at sunset i.e. in low light condition 🙂 Additionally it was significant side wind from the right on landing (and take off). We hurried to land the aircraft before sun went down because it is VFR flight and I don’t have allowed to flight at night. I landed the aircraft at official daytime, but taxied during (official) nighttime.
