If there's an FAR, or FAA legal interpretation, which clearly allows it, then it should be OK.

Even if it's not loggable, you can mention it on your resume... good conversation starter for the interview, and many folks on an interview panel will appreciate bush flying, seaplanes, ultralights, etc.

But since employers use total time as a key measure of experience, many would consider the use of ultralight time as a fraudulent attempt to "cut in line".
Thanks for the info. This is pretty much the way I was leaning towards. I'm waiting on an email back from my contact at the local FSDO to see what the people who really matter think about it but I'm pretty sure I already know the answer they are going to give.
