OK second question. Why would the PIC have any different designation after he dumps a load of jumpers? None of those guys are crew?
Yes you can log solo time as PIC. The instructor is responsible for providing adequate training and evaluation of a student pilot, but when a student pilot is flying solo, they are the ones making all the command decisions, so they get to log PIC.
