Exploring the world one toilet at a time.
Here's a scenario that was presented to me by a student on a hypothetical (which means the student already did this and is really asking "How do I log this?") and I already have my thoughts on this. So, I would like to propose it to the forum and what the consensus.
Airplane operates as part 91 domestic operations only. The airplane is Citation 550, which by type certificate is a two pilot aircraft. The left seat pilot is ATP mulit engine land, PIC typed for the aircraft, does not have a single pilot waiver, is not a flight instructor of any kind, nor a check airman, DPE or anything other than pilot. The right seat pilot has a commercial multi engine with instrument rating and no previous time in type. As the question goes, the left seat pilot asks the right seat pilot if they would like some flight time, blah blah blah...
Can the right seat pilot fulfill the duties of an SIC? Unless I am missing something, as I read it, 14 CFR 61.55 requires records of training, and sole manipulator of the controls for three landings PRIOR to acting as the SIC.
Discuss.
