XC Flying for Beginners (10am)

ABOUT

We've modified our XC Flying workshop to take place entirely in the online classroom. Flying xc is more than just landing away from "turkey". Aspects such as gear preparation, route planning, in-flight route adjustment, out landing options, and even getting back home from a safe flight are all aspects to be considered for a fun safe flight. This workshop touches on all of these aspects and more. It doesn't matter if your personal best (PB) is 500m, 5km or 50km. Besides, xc isn't about numbers, it's about using your aircraft to go places, near and far, and having fun doing it!
