Two PIC-qualified pilots, one trip.

"Sole manipulator of flight controls" aside...

For those of you who fly with another fully-typed pilot (and considered a "captain" in your company), how do you log your time? We assign a PIC to each trip, but they swap seats for different legs and assume the role of PIC during their time in the left seat. Would you only log the time as PIC when your name is on the trip sheet as PIC, or would you log your time in the left seat as such?

I realize what the regs say, but am curious as to how you would record your time for resume/job application purposes. In the airlines, they emphasize that your name needs to be on the flight release as PIC, but I'm not sure about this sector yet.

Thanks!

If my name is on the release, I log PIC. If the other guy is designated PIC, my time goes either in the SIC column, or in a custom column I call "61 PIC". Makes it easy to put the sole manipulator time in whichever the column whomever is asking wants to see it in (irregardless of the awkward grammar).
