Logging PIC Time / Acting as PIC
Asked by: Chris 5505 views FAA Regulations, Flight Instructor, General Aviation, Private Pilot
Need help clarifying:
Let's pretend a man named Joe has let his BFR lapse in 2005. He has a friend named Lisa who is a pilot and current on all fronts. Joe asks Lisa to go on a XC flight for a $100 hamburger. He is excited to fly again, will split the costs of the rental, and wants to fly the first leg and log the relevant PIC time. Assume the flight is 50nm and takes 30 mins each direction.
Is Joe allowed to fly a leg and log PIC time even though he allowed his BFR to lapse in 2005? How much time can Joe log as PIC? How much time can Lisa log as PIC?
Thanks for your help clarifying.
