For the purpose of claiming cross country hours towards licence issue (CPL etc) Cross country is any flight A to B or any flight from A to A with defined turning points. i.e. it is planned rather than a wander arround
How do you work that out? I know its a good idea to do this as its good practice for a cpl, but is it a requirement? and if so, how the hell is it audited?
How do the CAA know wether I did 'proper' VFR navigation or just bimbled around IFR (I Follow Roads)
I'm working toward my CPL and I have a cross country check box in my home made MS Access logbook so I can count the XC hours. As far as I'm concerned everything outside the circuit is XC. (I know there is a requirement for a 300nm XC with 2 landaways but thats a different discussion). i do generally navigate with proper turning points and calculated headings, but I don't think that that is relevent stricty to the requirements of the ANO.

I must have several hundred more hours X/C by all accounts then I only log flight > 50nm landing away as X/C. If anyone ever goes to the USA for a ticket or rating then this is all they will accept.....
