i guess my question is, do people look down upon logging time in the right seat in a 402?
I don't think anyone looks down upon it as an experience building venture, but as far as qualified time, most likely not.
I've sat right seat in C421's and BE20's when I was less than 1000 hours, and it was a great learning experience. I couldn't log the time, but it was more than that to me. Kept me in multi-engine, and in the system. If the right-seat jobs lead to full-time left seat jobs, then it doesn't matter what people think about it, because once you're left seat it all goes away anyways.
