I have done some cursory research on this (but not anything extensive) and can't find an answer. My house is in class D airspace and so I've always had to get LAANC authorization to fly in my back yard. No big deal. But I've never been able to fly at night there, and I could get some really nice city views if I could (I can drive over to the shopping center 1/2 mile away just outside the airspace but frankly I have two small kids and by that point in the day I'm exhausted).
I've requested LAANC clearance at night (actually, never got as far as requesting, just proposing a flight plan), stating in AirMap it's under recreational rules (and also tried a while back under 107 just to see what happened), but it doesn't allow it, saying "night flight prohibited." Fair enough. But now that 14 CFR 107.29 has been amended, is there any chance we can fly in those areas at night? In my case, I looked into getting around it by flying after the tower closed, but it turns out it becomes class E from the surface at that point concomitant with the regular class D, so no luck.
I can't do it until I get my strobes, but just curious how this will work.
