Also, even if it were legal to start logging PIC from the start of IOE, most airlines would want to see logged PIC time only when you were PIC and not under any sort of check airman supervision. Hope that helps.
During IOE, that is true. But if it's just a yearly line check (you were already qualified as captain) then you would be signing for the flight, not the check airman, and as such logging pic.
