Good luck mate. I've had my PPL for 3 months and it's fantastic. I'm on 70 hours and going all over the place. You Americans seem to fly
much better
aircraft then us in the UK though. I fly a C172 built in 1977. Ha. Does the job just fine though.

I highly doubt that we fly much better aircraft. I got my PPL flying a 1959 C-150...the one with a Venturi tube on the right side of the
aircraft It was a great flying little airplane but I never flew it on a cross-country leg. That thing would have beat me to death I
used a 60's model 172 for all cross -country flights. If I had used a 1977 model, I would have thought I was in a new airplane
