Okay boys and girls. Simply, AFTER you have your Commercial, any flight more than 50nm from departure point, whether you land or not, counts toward the X/C time required for the ATP. I audited my logbook just for this way back when I went for my ATP (1992). Back then the FAA checked EVERY page to make sure all the requirements were met, especially if you were close to the minimums. I was able (if I remember, I'm old now
) to add like about 65 hours to my X/C totals which brought me over the top. Nuf sed!

It's the "golden noose" of aviation. They know that you'll go back to NetJets when you're called back.

Got the no thanks letter. I am a furloughed frac pilot 5000 hours atp cfii,ii,mei typed in CRJ and 3 business jets. I couldnt have afforded to take the job anyway. Unemployment pays a little more. I guess they are not interested in furloughed pilots.
