Multi Safety Pilot?

[dal757]

Anyone know which regionals don't accept safety pilot time towards your total multi time. I heard America Eagle doesn't.

Just pply nyway and explain it later. If Most of your multi time is safety pilot and you get the job you may be a little behind the learning curve off the bat. Right now it doesn't seem that too many regionals are too picky. As long as you have a medical and a pulse, you could get on most places.

Is 910/135 very hireable right now? If so, Where?

Most CFIs I know did the safety pilot thing with another CFI to build multi-time.

Unless you have somehow logged it as "safety Pilot", this falls under the "Don't ask. Don't tell." policy.

Yes, you may be hirable at some places. Depends on where you want to go.
put in your resume, get an interview and let the chips fall where they may.

I am a little more skeptical.... If you were the PIC while your buddy was flying and you were giving dual, then log it as dual given. You would have signed his log book. If he was flying and you were tagging along for fun and experience, without dual given, unless the aircraft requires 2 people (not for insurance, but per the FAA) than I don't think you should log it.

If you really want to log it, though, put it in some unique column, explain it, and DO NOT add it to your multi time OR total time. Be VERY clear in your log book and resume, and in any interview, that this time is not part of your multi time or total time. But I doubt it counts for much, since you can't add it to these totals. (Though it was probably good experience.)

A lot of the other replies were leaning towards logging it as regular time, and hoping no one figured it out. I'd be careful, since the consequenses for that are huge.

I disagree.

"the pilot who is under the hood may log PIC time for that flight time in which he is the sole manipulator of the controls of the aircraft, provided he is rated for that aircraft. The appropriately rated safety pilot may concurrently log as second in command (SIC) that time during which he is acting as safety pilot.

The two pilots may, however, agree prior to initiating the flight that the safety pilot will be the PIC responsible for the operation and safety of the aircraft during the flight. If this is done, then the safety pilot may log all the flight time as PIC time in accordance with FAR 1.1 and the pilot under the hood may log, concurrently, all of the flight time during which he is the sole manipulator of the controls as PIC time in accordance with FAR 61.51(c)(2)(i)"

If you see it log it, if you fly it double it.

 

[EMB170Pilot]

Yeah like no one in the aviation world fudged their numbers to move on in their life...

 

[pilot83]

Never ever log SIC time as a safety pilot. Unless an SIC is required by the aircraft. Safety pilot shall be logged as PIC because you are required to be there, but if the aircraft does not require a "second pilot" you cannot log SIC.

If you see it log it, if you fly it double it.

That should be a new FAR
