I read that it is a flight to a point outside a radius of a 100nm from the Aerodrome of Departure but at the same time I’ve had people tell me that each leg needs to be 100nm or more.

I have a couple of cross countries logged in my logbook as
ABC - XYZ - LMN - XY 3.5 hours

I’ve made a full stop after leg 1 at XYZ
AerodromeABC -110nm- AerodromeXYZ -74nm- PointLMN -74nm- AerodromeXYZ

In this case, can I count the entire trip as a cross country towards my 50hr PiC or only the first leg from ABC to LMN?

Hey Rudysb, I’m having a similar confusion, most of my XC flights are outside a radius of 100 Nm but are logged with the same departure and arrival airport due to restrictions at other aerodromes to make a full stop. Would anyone know how I could prove it to the DGCA that I did in fact cross 100nm.
