But if I recall my logging rules, if you want to log cross country time it must include a landing more then 50 miles from your point of origin. If he nakes it all the way he won't have that. |

The 50nm rule only applies to cros country flights to qualify for the PP
certificate. Any flight where you landed at another airport is loggable as CC Mike MU-2 "John Theune" wrote in message news:eUJNd.7740$uc.717@trnddc04... Jon Kraus wrote: Why wasn't he PIC?

I was responding to your assertion that you have to land 50nm from your point of origin to log a flight as cross country. That is not correct. Mike MU-2 |

The only reason I pointed it out was for the benefit of someone who was only logging cc flights over 50nm. While cc flights shorter than 50nm don't count for most ratings, they may be applicable to insurance or other uses. Mike MU-2 |

Take-off and land at the same airport = local (not cross country) flight!
I think a note included will let him log it. g -- Jim in NC "Jon Kraus" wrote in message ... Why wasn't he PIC?
