logging PIC question
 
Can some help clarify a logging PIC question..
If during your initial training you receive a PIC Type but you are flying right seat/SIC, when could you log PIC time?
Thanks

You should be logging PIC when you are the PIC - the guy signing for the aircraft.

Everyone gets a "PIC type" from FlightSafety - actually being the PIC is an entirely different story

In reality - log what you want - just be able to explain it and back it up with your skills and mindset.

I do a lot of interviews, its very easy to differentiate between a Captain and a type rated SIC padding PIC time.

Simple don't log the time unless you've actually earned it. In other words even if you're in the left seat with your airline or oufit and not the final authority, its NOT PIC. Period. I'm fully typed in the bus but sit in the right seat for my company....guess what I'm still the FO.

Your logbook is yours. What you log is your business. What you use/attempt to use towards a certificate or a rating is a different story. Training received in a simulator in a FAR 142 training program can be counted towards a cert. or a rating. Any other sim can not, not even FAR 121 training.

Part 91 PIC = Sole minipulator if you are typed.

Part 1 PIC(FedEx, UPS, SWA 1000hrs. PIC) = Signed for the Aircraft. Name listed per leg on Flight Plan IFR/VFR. Or Aircraft maintanance log if required VFR/IFR. Can still be logged PIC for sole manipulator but Does Not count towards these purposes.

Part 135, 125, 121 PIC = Required for dispatch release signature. Cannot log sole manipulator PIC under these Regs.

i hate this "sole manipulator" BS, thats just one part of the regulation.

(3) An authorized instructor may log as pilot-in-command time all flight time while acting as an authorized instructor.

I can instruct for a week, never touch the controls, and log PIC.

FURTHERMORE, I can take a private pilot up to show him a takeoff, pattern, and landing and HE can log PIC if he never touches the controls because Dual given as a private is PIC.

At my company we typically fly with two type rated captians, Nobody "signs" for the airplane before we leave for the trip we are just assigned to fly the trip. When you look at the flight logs it only lists the name of the crew members, no Captian or FO. We among our selves understand that we switch seats every leg so when I am in the left seat i log PIC and when I am in the right seat I Log SIC. Does that sound like it would be logged accurately enough for the 1000 PIC turbine requirements?
