Straight out of the manual: --- Special VFR allows the relaxation by ATC, in certain circumstances, of some restrictions to facilitate the operation of a flight without lowering the flight safety to an unacceptable level. SVFR is usually applied by ATC in Class D or E Control Zones, when

IIRC, someone had come up with a way to display various properties on the HUD or instrument panel or something for debugging purposes. What was that? Take a look at Aircraft/T38/Instruments/aero.xml There's a more general way to do it, using static text for the field names. I'll make one

Perhaps this was mentioned already, but I believe in the US in order to request an SVFR clearance at night you also have to be instrument rated and the plane must be equipped for IFR flight. I don't recall whether you have to be IFR current or not though. Sounds like you were fine in this
