| Re: Altitude As long as you are either turning or climbing/descending, then you dont have to comply with the rule. I once flew about 50 miles on the wrong 'cardinal' heading VFR and when I finally figured it out I fessed up to the controller who was giving me traffic advisories.. all he said to me was "yeah, I'm keeping an eye on you" in a freindly tone  |

| Old Skool | Re: Altitude there was a 90 degree wind change between 3 and 6k and i usually do 4500 feet for the xc the DE asked for. but given the circumstances and teh favorarable 3k wind, i did 2500... he asked me when the^^^^^^ rule applied, and i didnt know. he said he'll ask me next time he sees me until then, PPL 6/14/06

| Re: Altitude I may be wrong but I think that at 2500 MSL then the rule wuld only apply if you are flying over the Dead Sea.... not turning.. not climbing.. |

| Re: Altitude [quote=bluelake]As long as you are either turning or climbing/descending, then you dont have to comply with the rule. lol well then i guess in the case of a student pilot they dont really need to worry whether they are on the correct altitude or not. i cant seem to get them to stop going up and down along with right and left
