Private Pilot Logging Time On Commercial Flight
Asked by: Brandon 4245 views FAA Regulations, Private Pilot
The regulations say that you, as a private pilot, can log PIC time simply by being the sole manipulator of the controls of an aircraft in which you are rated (class, category, and type if required).
Is there anything that precludes you from doing this on a flight that is a commerical operation?
For instance, can a private pilot log PIC time when sole manipulator of:
- A plane dropping skydivers
- A plane flying an aerial photography mission
Assuming, of course, that the legal and acting PIC is an appropriately rated commercial pilot.
