AND need it to get to the FAR min flight hours for an ATP. thus not many will ever have to worry about this time and its affect on flight time towards an ATPIf there is such a person i would like to meet them and their parent that owns an airline

the good thing is there are not many (if any) commercial certificate pilots logging long haul heavy jet Pt. 121 time AND need it to get to the FAR min flight hours for an ATP. thus not many will ever have to worry about this time and its affect on flight time towards an ATP

EDIT: Also good for people who might be coming from an airline like CX, where you start off as a SO unless you're lucky enough to get a DEFO/DECA slot, which they aren't doing currently.

How do you log time when you fly with three pilot crews on the C-17? More specifically, do you log time out of the cockpit spent eating a meal or sleeping in a crew bunk as multi-engine or total time?

Amen Orion.
Speaking of P-3C's, I have 1800 hours in them but only 1200 pilot time. 600 is "Special Crew Time" when I was a pilot rated in the airplane sitting in the back. In essence, an IRO. USN P-3 crews divided flight time by three:
A 9 hour flight = 3 hours First Pilot Time, 3 hours Copilot Time, 3 hours Special Crew Time.
I have logged all of my Aircraft Commander time as PIC (even the time when I was sleeping in the back), but can't bring myself to include my Special Crew Time into Total and Multi-Engine columns....should I? My squadron required three pilots when flying more than 6 hours, so I was a required crew member.
