### Objective Become familiar with all avionics and instrumentation available for a cross-country flight. If applicable, learn IFR procedures for this aircraft. > [!tip] This is can be combined with a [[M.2 Mountain Flight|mountain flight]] during a mountain checkout. ### Resources - [[Instrument ACS]] ### Builds On - [[PPL4.1 Intro to Cross Country Flying]] - [[HP.1 Theory, Maneuvers, and Emergencies]] - [[HP.2 Traffic Pattern]] ### Schedule Ground 0.5 hr^[this may require more ground time, depending on how prepared the learner is to use the new instruments], Flight 2.5 hr ### Lesson Elements - Overview of any new avionics or tools in the flight deck - If applicable, discussion of instrument procedures ([[Aircraft Gait Charts]] may be useful) - XC flight to practice (consider 3 airports for VFR+IFR, 2 airports for VFR only) - VFR to the first destination, simulated IMC with practice approach to an intermediate airport returning, missed approach, and another approach into home airport. ### Completion Standards Learner demonstrates an understanding of all tools available in the aircraft. If applicable, the learner performs instrument approaches to ACS standards. *Return to [[~ HP Lesson Plan Outline|Table of Contents]]^*
