When I had a question about it, I usually went conservative. It is a lot easier to explain why you didn't log time that you deserve rather than why you did log time you didn't.
The Air Force guys have a very different way of explaining it.
This is more or less how I did it. ^^^
If I signed for the jet, it was PIC. If it was a two seat jet (T-45, F-18B etc) and there was an IP on board, I logged it as dual received. I didn't log SIC just based on the 61 definition that guys above talked of. If you're a P-3/C-130/etc guy then it's another story.
Bottom line however you do it, be able to defend it in an interview either via FARs or guidance from the specific to the company applied to.
