As others mentioned, it is NOT flight time. It can count INSTEAD of flight time towards aeronautical experience requirements.
If they find it mixed in your total time at an interview and you didn't make that crystal clear up front, you'll be shown the door.
I politely disagree.
It’s total aeronautical experience.
And if I can log the “landing” for currency requirements and I can log the “instrument approaches” for currency requirements then it would make no sense at all if I could not log the total time.
