Where people get in trouble is when all of those conditions are not met.
I just had an interview for a regional and the interviews not only frowned upon my nearly 300 hours of SIC in a C208 for a 135 EAS provider of SCHEDULED service, he told me I couldn’t count it towards my total time and was now LESS than 1400TT…with it, I was at 1640.
Talk about a kick in the teeth…
The FSDO said I CAN count it, as long as I didn’t engage the autopilot…
…screw this industry with all the different interpretations…
It’s like the bible…EVERYBODY has a different translation.
