Another question; okay on the qualifications for the Commercial, the requirements is as stated below; does this mean that only solo meets this? Or does time split with another pilot ( foggles) count? (Which can be logged as SOLO or PIC.) Is it basically, you have to be alone in the airplane? Or is it as long as it's logged as solo or pic, it's acceptable?

(4) 10 hours of solo flight in a single-engine airplane on the areas of operation listed in §61.127(b)(1) of this part, which includes at least --

(i) One cross-country flight of not less than 300 nautical miles total distance, with landings at a minimum of three points, one of which is a straight-line distance of at least 250 nautical miles from the original departure point. However, if this requirement is being met in Hawaii, the longest segment need only have a straight-line distance of at least 150 nautical miles; and

(ii) 5 hours in night VFR conditions with 10 takeoffs and 10 landings (with each landing involving a flight in the traffic pattern) at an airport with an operating control tower.

If you look at 61.51 (d) you will see:

"logging of solo flight time...a pilot may only log solo flight time when the pilot is the sole occupant of the aircraft"

therefore to meet the requirements of the commercial it must be only you.
