In this lesson, the student shall plan and conduct a cross-country flight from Hanscom Field (KBED) to New York City, with a tour through the Hudson River and optionally the East River VFR corridors, and then back to Hanscom.

Answer the following questions on your own before showing up for the lesson:
- Where will we enter and exit the Hudson River VFR corridor?
- Do we have to fly through any of the New York Class B airspaces?
- If so, who should we call and on what frequencies?
- When we are flying in the Hudson River corridor, who will we talk to? What about the East River?
- At what altitude and airspeeds should we fly?
- What are our reporting points?

- Preflight (45 mins)
- Flight (5-6 hours)
- Post Flight Debriefing (20 mins)
Equipment
