Logging 135 X-country time.
#11
People are mixing up the requirements been the CPL and the ATP all the time.
I've still taken the most conservative approach when I was figuring up X/C time for my ATP and I still log X/C time only when I've gone more than 50nm and made a landing - but this is done by choice and is more conservative than the FARs allow (not that I am concerned with logging more X/C time other than my own information/record keeping).
flyskiwake - others have covered it very well....but you are getting yourself into a situation here where you can certainly gain experience, but if you log it, you will be setting yourself up for negative consequences for a long time to come when searching for legitimate aviation employment.

(A) Conducted by a person who holds a pilot certificate;

Note that 135 time is not a certificate so you can use the general definition "landing at another point navigated to using dead reckoning, etc."
