OK you have reached your Air Nav/ X Country stage
Why not "practice" the Nav side by using MFS2002/4 AND VFR scenery.
Before people say a flight simulator is not realistic especially for GA planes...I agree but combined with VFR scenery you can "fly"your planned route and recognise where you are ( oh look there is the River Ribble or there's Southport) as many times as you want. Once you are familar with how an area looks from the air some of the pressure is off you - allowing you to concentrate on flying or ATC
It isn't expensive and whilst its 2D and not 3D, flying at 2-3'000ft it is really really a good way of getting used to Nav side of things
I know..I used it ...and I passed !!!! There are a lot out there who do
Enjoy !!!
