Question, could say two guys who fly a trainer plane are flying together, (one in rightseat and one in leftseat) both be able to log hours.?
As I understand it Yucca, you can only log PIC (pilot in command) time or Duel time with an CFI. I don't think you can both be pilot in command at the same time.
I will look in my FAR/AIM and see what the reference # is.
You can Log hood time with another pilot acting as safety pilot but this is logged as duel time simulated inst. time.
ahh found it in AIM 1995 (only one I had a work)
US FAR 61-51 Pilot Logbooks
FAR/AIM = Federal Aviation Regulations and Aeronautical Information Manual
61.51 c-2 i
covers it
"You may only log pilot in command time when you are the sole manipulator of the controls".
I read that as you can only have one PIC at a time. If you and a pilot buddy fly for an hour someplace and then return you can each log the two hour flight put only one hour each.
You cant each get two hours logged for the trip.
hope that answers your question
