Possibly a stupid question: For the employment section, are you expected to put non-flying jobs? Say if you worked another job or had your own business while still flying? I would think just put N/A when it asks for airplane most flown.

Hey y'all I'm pretty new to the game, been flying for a few years and my end game is Fed Ex if I can get there. I'm currently coming back from Furlough as an RJ FO. I have some TPIC in a large turbo-prop but not enough to make me eligible for FedEx. Should I continue logging 121 FO time and hope to upgrade some-day or try to find a 135 PIC job on a turbo-prop or a jet?

Logging time.
Hey guys, quick question... hows does fedex like time to be logged while flying with a four man crew? Currently im an f/o... how do you divide up the times for the logbook? Should you keep a separate IRO section?

You really have to decide where do you want to be (135 or your current 121 gig) if you don't end up here. (hopefully not, but just being realistic.)

So block times typically range between the 9-12 hour range with a 4 pilot augmented crew. I legally can’t log more than 8 hours. I usually split the time down the middle unless someone’s tired & needs to rest a bit longer, then I happily stay in the seat to earn some extra flight time (up to 8 hours).
For me, I’ve always been conservative. If I’m on a 3 pilot crew and we fly a 7.0 with each pilot doing 2hrs on break, then I log 5.0 TT and 5.0 SIC.
I think legally PIC can be logged by one pilot while the captain is in the back on break but it seems to gray area for me and I prefer simplicity.
Maybe I’m leaving some hours on the table, thoughts?
