Nevertheless, I have never logged any of that as PIC in my logbook although I guess technically I could. It just seemed a little shady to try and pad my TPIC time and I would look at something like that with a hairy eyeball if I were doing the hiring. But, this thread probably had nothing to do with FOs.
I log the seat time.
So 11 hr flight with 3 Crew I log time I’ve sat in a control seat left or right as SIC. Separate column I keep track if that time was PF, PM or relief pilot.
That way I have a record of all time, TT of the entire flight ( which technically I could log in it’s entirety as SIC) and my seat time and in which function.
In the remarks section the flight # and the Captains name.
Total time, seat time, capacity, PIC name and flight #.
Me tinks that covers everything anybody would ever want to know.
