First Long Cross-Country as a Pilot -- Any tips?
"JDK" wrote in message ups.com... Of note, I did my training in a (slow) C152, but moved up to a fuel- injected C172 after getting my license. Any tips to ease the flight? Good tips for fuel consumption savings? Fly high and read up on the best mixture-leaning practice for that powerplant. As for easing the flight, a handheld GPS is a great secondary tool for double-checking your progress and calculations. Plus, it gives your passenger something to play with. Tips for taming my 2-year old for the flight? Oh, man. Can't help you there! Too young for "Do you want to get out and walk?!" to be effective. -c
