Not under Part 91.

But no, I wouldn't pay for it. A few problems I see.
1) There are
lots of lear guys out there that are PIC typed, 135 current and jobless.
2) They have time in type.
3) Insurance likes 1 and 2.
4) They have to train someone anyway. Whoever it is, they are legally required (135) to train them and check them. The SIC type can be done as part of that checking event. If the sim center won't do it for free, you can cover the SIC type stuff with a company instructor in one domestic flight and take the 8710 and endorsement to the FSDO.
