It prevents the "sole-manipulator" clause. Scenario: two type rated pilots fly a Lear 45. Let's say 91K - FlexJet, etc. One signs for the aircraft and is considered PIC by the company; however, the other logs PIC when it's his leg to fly (unbeknownst to the actual FAA PIC who is also logging PIC for the exact same leg). Just to make it clean neither pilot is an instructor. Or, same scenario under straight part 91 where neither pilot needs or has an ATP. Is it legally? Technically.
Some consider it cheating. Employers are pretty savvy at spotting this. When in doubt, don't.

Another caveat would occur in say a C172RG if the safety pilot did not have an HP/complex endorsement. In that case he MUST log SIC. So you can in fact have SIC in a 172. And in all my years of flight school ownership - looking at countless logbooks - that's the way I've seen it the most: SIC.
That does not sound right at all, unless things have changed? Logging SIC in a C172 with with 2 pilots, one being a safety pilot?

I don't have the FARs in front of me and it has been a long time since I've done any flight instruction or GA flying, but from what I remember if you have 2 guys buzzing around in a C172, one under the hood, both pilots can log PIC time, however the safety pilot can log the time when the other is under the hood.

The answer is- it depends. Both PIC and SIC can legally be logged by a safety pilot. Depends on the circumstances. If I'm under the hood and I say, "I'm PIC." You log SIC.
How about a Bonanza with a throw over wheel? If I'm an ATP RATED PIC I'm not relinquishing PIC authority - even under the hood - to a private pilot. The safety pilot can't legitimately get control quickly. The logging status is determined by who is ACTING as the PIC. Here's a good breakdown.

I agree that both pilots can log PIC; however, someone suggested you can't ever log SIC in a 172. That's not true.

Log PIC when you are solo designated as the Captain.... log SIC when designated as such in an appropriate aircraft that requires one. Log the other stuff (safety pilot, etc) as training/time building.... keep it easy. FAA Part 61 (sole manipulator) and Part 1 PIC are two very different things. If you are typed in an RJ and flying as FO, you are the SIC, and should be logging it as such, even though under 61.51 you could log PIC, but you really are not.

Default Any new JetBlue Hiring Info?

Hey everybody,

I applied for JB back in September. After a few months I got an email from HR saying that their system went through an update and to re-apply, that was about 2 months ago. Any word on interviews or class dates?

I'm thinking I missed out, I'm at the lower end of JB minimums.

The window opened again in February and emails/calls for interviews are going out from that window now. I think competitive for civilian pilots is around 4,500 TT. Job fair attendance is a huge factor.

So you fill out the application and enter your no-kidding, responsible for the airplane PIC time. Your paper logbook contains sole-manipulator, appropriately rated PIC time (e.g. a private pilot receiving instruction toward an instrument or commercial rating, or a commercial pilot receiving instruction toward an instructor rating). Is there a preferred method of documenting the difference? You can add a column to an electronic logbook, but should you add a corrective entry or something to the paper log?

No. JetBlue understands all the different ins and outs of it. They simply ask for a different total of what they deem to be "real" pic. You don't need to change your logbook if you've been doing it legally, just give them the total of what they ask for. The people reviewing logbooks at the interview understand that and have seen many many logbooks with all kinds of variations.

Ok. Excellent! I'm at about 3300, and just upgraded to captain in my jet. So looks like I'll stay here for a bit. Where would I find good info about job fairs?
