meh, I disagree. If you're going for a commercial certificate, you are
going to have to learn how to do stuff alone. All the guys I know who
went off to work for cargo carriers do most of their flying alone. Even
a non-pilot can help a lot. Anyways, its just one flight.

When I did my long cross country for the commercial, I went to
Baltimore. This of course was just over a week or two ago. It was
actually the sunday before the ADIZ incident. most of the flight was
over the emptyness of West Virginia, and let me tell you it was very
boring, but I must get used to it if I plan on doing this
professionally.
