For day VFR:
1. Draw line on nice laminated CAA chart in chinagraph.
2. Make sure the line doesn't bong any restricted airspace - or get too close to it for comfort. If it does, include a few turning points to keep clear!
3. Back up route on GPS with 'dtk', 'eta' and 'gs' as the data fields.
4. Apply basic MDR to convert tracks into headings.
5. Fly along looking out of window with the odd peek at the GPS CDI bar if the viz gets a bit dunkel. Otherwise it's basic visual navigation, backed up by the GPS giving nice warm confirmation of basic techniques.
6. NB the odd VOR/DME cross-check and preset the OBS on both VOR displays accordingly.
7. As a last resort, make sure that the ADF is tuned to something useful!
8. Remember that it's supposed to be for FUN!!
