CPL Cross country suggestions...

Hi all,

A friend of mine planned a flew a CPL x-country route yesterday going form Duxford-Lydd-Bembridge and back.

The route was over 300nm but as the crow flies (which would mean flying over London's Class A) it is 250nm. He got told on his return by another pilot that his qualifing x country trip got knocked back by the CAA as they take it as the crow fly's.

Is this the case?? I was planning on doing the same route but looking at different ones now.

Also does anyone know if you can make more than the two away landings as stated or is that the minimum rather than the maximum as if he landed at lydd on the way back as well it would have been over the 300nm again

Any advice or suggested routes most welcomed
