My good friend Craig is in the midst of his flight training and has paid his dues by planning cross countries on paper... so it's time for him to learn modern cross country planning! I'm motivating Craig to plan his first big post-PPL cross country, maybe to Santa Fe. In this short video, we use ForeFlight to determine where to make our fuel stop, then conduct route planning for legs 1 and 2, and then assess weather, the navlog, and a full briefing. Welcome aboard! Wayne , GeezerGeek Pilot
