Remember, for the ATP you don't actually have to LAND anywhere, the flight just has to go 50 nm from the point of origin.
That's the part I really want to make sure because I've heard so many different explanations about the ATP xc requirement.
If I flew w/student to an airport that took 25nm to get there and came back (rountrip total distand 50nm), that will qualify as xc time for ATP
Also, if my airplane is traveling 100kt and I flew 1 hr (100 nm) w/out secondary airport, that can count as xc
Just want to make sure I will be on the same page w/DPE for checkride.
