Learn ATC | FAA VFR Procedures | VFR Cross-Country🛩️
55Tonight we continue our FAA Conversion journey with Lesson 4, focusing on the planning and execution of a full VFR cross-country flight under FAA regulations, using WINGS VFR Flight 5 as our practical foundation.
We’ll recap what we’ve learned about airspace, phraseology, and chart navigation, then take things further with a look at VFR route planning, weather briefings, dead reckoning, and how to operate safely into and out of non-towered airports.
Our focus will be on real-world FAA cross-country procedures — including preflight planning, interpreting METARs/TAFs, navigating using visual checkpoints and VORs, and managing CTAF communications like a pro.
✈ ️ Practical Flight:
A multi-leg VFR cross-country flight beginning at Nashua (KASH), covering both towered and non-towered airports as part of WINGS VFR 5.
Route Planning
Airport diagrams and Charts
Brief weather conditions
Practice CTAF procedures at non-towered fields
Navigate using pilotage and dead reckoning, not just GPS
This stream builds on the foundation from our Class B operations and prepares you for the real-world complexity of cross-country flying — with weather, terrain, communication, and airspace all playing a role in safe, confident decision-making.
