Hmm... All this time I've been told / read that the 50nm didn't apply to the ATP, but apparantly it does. And honestly, I was a bit skeptical about the "don't have to land thing," I never even heard about that until yesterday when I read it online (hooray internet ). Thanks for pulling that up. Thankfully, I've got a seperate column in LogbookPro for 50nm+ XC time "just in case."

So my original question still applies. How is 6.5 hours of XC time to a airport 55nm away going to look to potential employers? Will they just accept it, or is it going to raise a red flag? Does anyone else have any experience with something like this?

mitragorz,

I think you are getting the two confused. To an employer it isn't going to look bad. Now the fact that its the same route day in and day out, I dunno. The company's XC requirement can count all point to point XC time. But the flights you are making are by definition able to be counted provided that you land at the other airport
