This exercise in the flight training is done with an instructor. This is to prepare you for the qualifying cross-country flight. This is an EASA requirement. You have to fly a cross-country flight with two stop away from your base airport with a minimum distance of 270Km. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I flew that and actually for various reason (weather, exam preparation&#8230;) I flew a lot more than the required distance as I went to Teuge airport (EHTE) and then to Seppe airport EHSE. This around 360km of total flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flight itself was pretty uneventful. There&#8217;s few take away though. I won&#8217;t expand on that but the planning is key. When you are flying and you don&#8217;t have a plan you can easily get things a bit wrong and have to correct. That does not happen happen when you have a healthy plan for what&#8217;s ahead of you. I also found I could be better at flying orbits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is the track I followed. It&#8217;s pretty nice to flow in this season. Netherlands is a beautiful place from the sky too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=1yoPafm4IRCUlebBWYSFHzKy1UbE5Omy4\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flying my first big triangle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":401,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-397","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-flying"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.lauretland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/orbitting.jpg?fit=616%2C265&ssl=1","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=397"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":402,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397\/revisions\/402"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lauretland.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
