As I expected, Judy hit the nail on the head. For FAA purposes, to log XC
time, a landout at a remote airfield is required. The accepted definition in the soaring community is any flight out of gliding range of the home field. I certainly know when I'm cross-country when all I can see is rocks and cactus. Under this definition, I have about 600 hours, but under the FAAs I can only count my handful of landouts and one where I flew from another site back home. I still wonder whether bodies like the BGA or FAI have a written definition. Mike ASW 20 WA
