Cross country time build
I fly alot at my current job but all of it is local time 0 Cross country.I am getting close to the 1500 but i am short 200 hrs cross country time.Any suggestions on how to build cross country time near ventura,California
|
Fly further?
|
willing to fly anywhere as long as i come back to cali
|
a quick touch and go at one of the numerous airports in the area.
|
Don't know if this helps, but for ATP purposes you don't have to land any where you just have to fly to a point 50 nm away.
|
Go through and make sure any flight in the records that landed at 2 points was counted. Still not enough and you may be looking at some sort of time building project, ferry, or CFI work. I had to do a C152 time building project to get mine up towards the end.

Get 3 of you buddies together, rent a 172 for ROAD TRIP to Las Vegas! Do this every Friday night, for about two months. Make them pay for the airplane, or at least split it 4 ways. That's how I paid for my cross country hours when I was 18 in college, but instead of Las Vegas, it was for an overnight to an all girls college to visit my girlfriend, so I pimped out her girlfriends, and I never had trouble filling the airplane with willing participants.:D |
