Yeah, I agree that solo cross countries are probably the biggest confidence builder in training (For me so far at least). The fact that I can actually plan for and fly to different destinations on my own was a huge boost for me. But now knowing that an FAA examiner says that I'm safe to operate on my own I feel like I'm actually a no-kidding pilot now
