Wasn't there a pilot who used to think it was fun to fly inverted approaches at night at an east coast airfield. Just to confuse the hell out of the tower controllers. Then roll the right way up with 50ft to go.

Might be a myth mind.

If an aircraft was to fly inverted at night, would that not make collision avoidance / right-of-way decisions difficult to make for other aircraft. You wouldn't know the aeroplane was the other way up, so the port/starboard navigation/position lights would be the wrong way round.
