Q: What are the differences between PIC, SIC and Instructor Time when logged into the Flight Hours?
A: Here are the guidelines:
PIC (Pilot In Command) = Any time you signed for the plane as aircraft commander
or solo including all instructor time.
SIC (Second In Command) = Any time you acted as second in command and/or didn't sign for the plane.
This DOES include dual/student time.
Instructor = Only the time you logged as an instructor, regardless of the time being reported in PIC.
Instructor time is PIC time. It belongs in both columns.
I have not found this on SWA's app site. So like MikeF16 said we have to carefully check each app for what the specific airline wants
TY for this, I didn't notice that in the Q&A section, bought me around another 400 hours on my AA application.

Airlines get to make the rules we get to follow them. BTW, just as you said, you can't count any time prior to your PPL on the SWA application. If you happen to be competing with me though, I'll be more than happy for you to tell the airlines how dumb their application procedures are...
