Default RE: Night Flying, Which plane? Ideas?

I plan on getting stick time at early evening and dusk. As for trees.... Not a problem we have none near our field My plan was to have some one using a rather large spot light on the runway on landings. I have also seen glow sticks used to light up runways at night events. I know the landings will be a challenge and that's why I want to be able to slow it down allot. As for aerobatics I just want it to be able to do basic rolls and loops, maybe a hammer head but since it's night time I don't want to get to crazy.

All of the above planes in my list would be no big deal if I smacked it in. I am a very accomplished daytime flyer and I wanted to try my hand at something new.
