Question about hours.

If you have never gone to school, no one is going to expect you to know the airplane inside and out, but if you end up logging more than just a few hours, you should know some of the basic systems, as it's most certainly fair game at an interview if you have logged a ton of PIC in the airplane.

*I highly doubt you DPE will ask you any questions...This is more for interviews in the future

Do you have a high altitude and a high performance endorsement. Second, is your buddy logging flight time on those legs and is he/she an MEI? If you buddy is not an MEI and is not providing instruction to you, then only one of you can log the time per flight. The King Air B200 only requires one pilot to fly it, so if you are not a commercial pilot and flying under fractional ownership of part 91, only one of you can log the time.

What type of flying is being done when you are logging sole-manip time in this King Air? If you do not hold a commercial ticket yet, these must be empty legs flown part 91.

If you buddy is just joy riding in his King Air and letting you fly, that's cool. It becomes dicey when you look at the later parts of part 91 flying and Operation/Fractional Ownership flying.

This brings up a question that I've had. I've got my PPL, a friend of mine has his student license but has all requirements met except for the age req which is holding him back from getting his PPL. Is it legal if he flies a leg of a flight as long as I watch him to make sure we obviously don't get into a bad situation?

If he wants to forge a CFI signature for dual received on the flight, sure.
 
Can he fly it? Of course. People let non rated pilots fly their planes all of the time. I wouldn't log it though.

A couple months ago on a trip to GCN...

Dropped sunglasses in a crevice in the seat.

"Honey, can you grab the yoke for a second while I reach for my sunglasses?"

Look of horror and panic crosses her face.

"OH MY GOD NOOOO ARE YOU KIDDING ME I CAN'T TOUCH THIS THING!!!!!!!"

:D

OTOH, a few weeks ago we had my cousin and her 12 year old daughter here and went for a scenic flight. I gave the yoke to the daughter.

Her facebook entry:

Shouldn't he have been paying for half the pro rata share in order to not be receiving ''compensation'' (hours).
