My First SOLO Cross-Country Flight!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- One of the many FAA requirements for a Student Pilot to become a Private Pilot is that the Student Pilot must complete five hours of solo cross-country flights. What qualifies as a cross-country flight, you might ask? That’s a very good question because everyone I told about this requirement thought I had to fly from Texas to California, lol. Actually, a flight from one airport to another airport that is more than 50 nautical miles is how the FAA defines a “cross country flight.”
Here is my FIRST SOLO CROSS COUNTRY! So glad to get this one checked off the list!

Check out my first true landing (w/out help from my instructor)! ruclips.net/video/4tTyHb-Ycuo/видео.html
Student pilot, have had to delay my cross country solo 3 times (2x for ~ 10+ knot crosswinds, 1x for moderate Turb airmet...). Really cool to see you crush yours! Good luck on your checkride!
Haha, gotta check in because I'm an Aggie and you asked, so :)
Cool to watch your flights! I'm in flight school myself right now but well behind where you're at. Hard to go at a good pace without money to burn, but excited to keep at it. Particularly fun for me to watch you fly over this route, because I can't count the number of times at A&M when friends and I would drive to and from Houston on 290-you know, during the 12 years it was continually under construction. Then they finally finish it, and I graduate and move out of state!
What a nice airplane. My current flight school has old Warriors in questionable condition and I honestly probably wouldn't feel comfortable taking friends or family up in them. I don't know how flight schools get away with this. It would be nice if there were more new Pipers available for training.
great job! My first two solo
XC are this weekend. you have a Nice equipped plane to fly as a student pilot!!
My xc solo got rescheduled 10 friggen times over a six week span gotta love Oregon weather 😊
Oh man, I’ve been there before! We have the same problems in Houston. The storms and clouds roll in pretty quickly and make it tough for VFR flights. I hope you get blue skies soon!
I hope that cell phone is in airplane mode! 😂
Thanks for sharing your journey with us :)
Great flying 👍
Student pilot here, solo x-country next week 🤞.
When I fly solo around the pattern I keep the phone connected to my headset, just in case. I ignore any call except my instructor.
Good job Mike!!
...u did good brah!..you'll do fine in the checkride...wheels up! ✈
Funniest thing is I have heard professional pilots from the airlines talking to the wrong frequency lol
nice flight . did you use foreflight?
Yes, always! And you?
I started flight training last summer for my ppl gained about 17 hours. Stopped due to the financial situation. . Never used foreflight until i started simming . Looking to get back into training in January. Ate you still training?
I remember by solo xc earlier this year, I was on tower calling for ground taxi too haha
I have called for fuel on ground before. that was terrifying
How can you record all ATC?
Sorry for the late reply - I'm just plugging an audio cable into the airplane's comms and my GoPro and getting anything spoken on the frequency that I happen to be on. Hope that helps!
@AV8RMike thanks man! I already found the way how record the ATC lol. Thank you for your replying and have a safe flight always!
