&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Log each and every flight(s) in which you fly 50NM  or more to a distant landing as CROSS COUNTRY distance flights flown and logged.  You may find this useful when or if you apply for other Airman ratings or higher Airman Certificates.   
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Know, The FAA does not consider a flight a cross country flight without a landing 50NM or more distant to a full stop.   
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Strange it may seem, that an airman flying glider, experimental or std airworthiness, may fly great distances even 1000Km or more and it would not be counted as Cross Country Flight by FAA unless he landed that distance away to a full stop . 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;If one landed 30miles short tho had flown many many miles FAA XC definition would grant you no XC for the flight. 
&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Sad.  True.   
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;So if you did 1000Km Out and Return or 1000Km triangle, and returned to point of origin it is not Cross Country flight in FAA definition of Cross Country aircraft flight unless one were flying it under AirTransportPilot provisions of his Certificate and rating Glider (this would be a rare instance, and most ATP Airmen actually exercise or are limited to PP or CP privileges in glider these days.  Only a few Airmen remain who hold ATP 
&lt;br /&gt;Certificate with Glider rating  with ATP privileges extant in glider.     
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Make your XC flights count for FAA, for additional ratings,  and for insurers.   Log XC as such meeting the definition of Cross Country Flight as stated by FAA CFRs.   
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Cross-Country Time
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The basic definitions of cross-country time are found in 14 CFR Part 61.1 (b)(3). A cross-country flight is any flight that involves a landing at another airport and involves navigation. 
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;This may be relevant to you when you are looking to qualify under Part 135 pilot requirements, since there this basic definition of cross-country is used. However, there is a difference in this basic definition and the requirements for cross-country flight to count as the appropriate aeronautical experience for a certificate or rating.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;In essence:
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;To meet the requirements for a Private or Commercial certificate or for an Instrument rating or to "exercise the privileges of a Recreational" certificate the flight must include a LANDING at a point MORE than 50NM from the point of original departure.
&lt;br /&gt;For an ATP certificate the requirement is for a FLIGHT (not a landing) more than 50NM straight line distance from the point of departure.
&lt;br /&gt;Otherwise any landing at any other airport counts as cross-country time. This is generally important for people looking to meet the 14 CFR Part 135 PIC requirements.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Be of good heart.   
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Dancing on clouds,
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Keep it up !
