PIC, TPIC, SIC? what's the difference.
Sorry I tried researching this on my own but I cant find what I'm looking for. I see TPIC thrown around a lot and I would like some clarification of what it means. I understand what SIC and PIC are but I am wondering once I start out as a FO will all of my time be SIC even if I am manipulating the controls? Will I have to wait to make captain before logging PIC? Is there any benefit to logging SIC? Will future employers see my flight time as a FO as of any value or is it the captain time that really matters? TPIC=total PIC?
