Yeah, I know but that's not what I asked and you're wrong anyways, cross country time as defined in 14 CFR 61.1(b)(3)(i). is time that includes any flight conducted by a pilot in an aircraft that includes a LANDING at a point other than the point of departure that includes the use of dead reckoning, pilotage, electronic navigation aids, radio aids, or other navigation systems to navigate to the landing point.
So if you fly somewhere and you don't land, that's not a cross country, and that bring us back to my original question:
What's a landing?
To be counted as a landing does the skids have to physically touch the airport surface or an approach in to a hover than a take off counts as well.
I cannot find any references about this.
