Dual: Night X-Country
KPTS > KLLU > SGF > KSGF > KPTS

Remarks, Procedures, Maneuvers: None

Comments:
This was to be a required night flight towards my PPL. I planned to take my son with as this was dual instruction and he had been wanting to flight at night for some time.

After planning, I checked for a standard briefing, and was informed that KLLU, only two miles from where I was calling, was closed. Further VOR SGF was down. Talking through the flight with my instructor at KPTS, I preflighted the plane and found that neither the beacon nor the strobe worked. Therefore the flight was scrubbed. We have rescheduled.

I am hoping flying next week.
