logging PIC with an SIC type
situation:
a pilot with an SIC type for a C525 sits left seat, while the holder of the PIC type sits right. Can the SIC type holder log PIC?
I can't find anything in 61.51 that says no.

How about getting a PIC type then it would be perfectly legal?

I do not see how you can legally log pic time when you are not rated as a pic. I would check with the FAA if I were you before attempting to log that time since their FAR's book is much thicker than the ones you buy in the pilot shops. As a side note, big purple would not recognize that type of flight time.:mad:

its not for me...the guy I fly the plane with just hired someone who had previously logged the time this way and we were wondering. My first instinct was no way. We looked in the regs and couldn't dispute it though.

Here is what the regs say...
(e) Logging pilot-in-command flight time. (1) A recreational, private, or commercial pilot may log pilot-in- command time only for that flight time during which that person --
(i) Is the sole manipulator of the controls of an aircraft for which the pilot is rated; As an SIC rated pilot you must have a PIC with you i.e. you are NOT the sole manipulator.
(ii) Is the sole occupant of the aircraft; or Nope
(iii) Except for a recreational pilot, is acting as pilot in command of an aircraft on which more than one pilot is required under the type certification of the aircraft or the regulations under which the flight is conducted.You are not qualified and cannot act as pilot in command.
It is very clear to me. Tell the new-hire to correct his logbook before he gets ejected from an interview... or something worse.
