Building cross country time
Asked by: Jason 5998 views FAA Regulations, Helicopter, Instrument Rating
Hi,,,I was just wondering what you guys think, if a person needs to build cross country time for an insturment rating! Can that person fly to another airport that is a minimum of 25 nautical miles (required mileage for helicopter x-c) away with the hood on,,do say,, 3 insturment approaches with a missed approach on each one,,,,and then,,fly back (without touching down) to the original airport!! Can he log x-c for the whole flight?(with and approved safety pilot of course)\'
My issue is I guess, you would have to take your hood off to do a full down landing! And then you would have to count that off your hood time!! What do you think?
