First Long Cross-Country as a Pilot -- Any tips?
JDK wrote:
Alright, first long cross-country coming up for me as a pilot. Traveling up to see family for Memorial Day weekend (and hoping the weather holds out on Friday). 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? Tips for taming my 2-year old for the flight? Just plan the flight as normal. A long cross-county is no harder than a short one. Just keep an eye on the weather. As for the 2 year-old, mine were always asleep before I reached pattern altitude. :-) Matt
