Commercial Long Cross Country

[JonJohn82]

Yeah, since the flight school I fly for is in the terminal with Ozzie's, I eat there quite a bit.

The key term is "FAA Approved Course". All flights conducted towards certification under Part 141 must be within the specific school's "Approved Course". You cannot enroll in an "Approved Course", then go outside and do flying that counts toward certification under the "Approved Course" curriculum.

Our 141 school has a list of approved airfields for Private students to use for touch and gos and PPL cross countries. There are no specified airports for our Commercial students.

Listen to Cale. He knows his 141 stuff.

I don't claim to be an authority, but... I did 141 training and I seem to remember flying off to all kinds of odd airports to get my commercial cross country time. Don't recall checking a list or getting permision to go to a single one.

Some POI's may require a list of airports. The 141 faq published by the FAA makes it clear that it is not required. Under special circumstances, you can use your own plane for 141, but there are additional hoops to go through.
Look for the 141 faq on the FAA website. It is very, very informative.

Wait a minute man. Before you even get in the plane to fly this thing....

If you're getting moist, you have a SERIOUS problem.
