This question comes up every now and than and there are so many interpretations it makes the head spin. I've always understood the logging as there is only one PIC and one SIC (91.513) for any given flight that requires such....end of story. You cannot have more than one of either on any given "leg". When the crap hits the fan "somebody" has to be responsible. If you both log PIC, who is responsible? As far as the check airman goes, unless there's an agreement prior to the flight, usually the check airman is PIC. The PF is receiving the ride to get current (though line checks can be a different ballgame). I always ask myself, if we go down in flames of glory (God forbid), who will be responsible according to the authorities?

That's my story and I'm sticking with it. :-) Now I have a headache.
