Solo defined

FAR 61.51 (d)

d) Logging of solo flight time. Except for a student pilot performing the duties
of pilot in command of an airship requiring more than one pilot flight
crewmember, a pilot may log as solo flight time only that flight time when the
pilot is the sole occupant of the aircraft.

Where is "solo" defined beyond 61.87 (a)? For example, solo night, and/or
solo x/c in relation to commercial certificate.

I don't have an answer for you, but a little "fun fact" is that the
definition that you found in 61.87(a) specifically applies only to Subpart C
(Student Pilot), and therefore has nothing to do with the Commercial Certificate
requirements.

61.51(d)
defines "solo" as "sole occupant", that means alone.. and un afraid..
can't count that trip with the girl friend.. it was long enough for the long
Commercial Cross Country.. but it was not "solo"

So Solo is treated the same as PIC, right?

I think you're wrong. As long as you've that guy sitting next to you (the
one in the headset), you're not solo.
