When you complete an application, they will have you place your time where they want it which is fine, but this is how it should be logged. Please site your reference.
I give up. You are correct. Log time as a first officer however you would like. Although the FAA is the governing authority they are useless when it comes to how your logbook stacks up for a job. A future employer is exactly who matters when it comes to whats in your logbook.
When you apply to Southwest just make sure you subtract this time to meet their definition of what PIC turbine really is
2 PIC for this purpose is defined as Captain/Aircraft Commander of record, not simply the sole manipulator of the controls. For military personnel, Southwest Airlines will allow flight time logged as "Pilot in Command" (PIC) only if you are the Captain/Aircraft Commander, Evaluator, or Instructor Pilot. Primary time will only be considered PIC on a specific aircraft after an individual upgrades to Aircraft Commander in the appropriate aircraft. Time logged as "Other Time" will not be considered.
She we argue about when one should log actual next?
