Tired Soul's description is generally correct. One thing though, neither of them had the time recorded in their logbooks as dual received, just PIC.

Can you explain how you're going to "log TT" without performing some necessary function in the airplane? You aren't PIC, You aren't giving dual instruction. What exactly is your justification for putting the hours in your logbook? "I was sitting there" is not a valid reason for logging flight time. That's what you can't seem to wrap your mind around, is that telling someone to "Just log the total time" is erroneous advice. You can't "Just log total time."

I can't believe that nobody has corrected the person suggesting that you need a HP endorsement to log PIC time in an SR22. Cat and Class only guys! Until you are 'acting' as PIC that is.

Little Off topic,
Once you put your signature in his logbook as dual given, that opens you up to FAA scrutiny should he pop the chute on that Cirrus or any have an accident with any other plane..
I know thats a bit of a stretch for big brother watching, but all the same, it can happen.
Over a year after leaving instructing, I had a former student run out of gas as his new instructor sat on a picnic table ( most likely padding his $$)
Sure enough I'm in front of the FAA answering questions.....
Trust me, in a few years or less, you are not gonna care about a few hrs bombing around in a single piston.
