EP43 - Flying Cross Country As A New Pilot - XC 101

Ben, Brian, and Ted talk about how to think about cross-country flying, especially for the new pilot.

In the climbout (training) segment, the crew discusses aircraft options for new student pilots: rent a plane, join a flying club, or even buying a plane. There are advantages to each!
