Everything Offends Me
CFIs around the country are giving out incorrect information, pilots take the information blindly, then become CFIs and spread the information. Its unfortunate, but because there are some CFIs (who really shouldn't be them, IMHO) that refuse to read the FARs, and instead just guess at them, I think the FAA needs to change PIC into two categories:
Sole Manipulator time, being time in which the pilot was physically moving the controls during flight
Flight Responsibility time, being time in which the pilot was in charge of the actions of the flight, supervising a pilot who is sole manipulator, or is otherwise a required crewmember in a situation where he is not the sole manipulator.
That'd do it. Then I don't have to lose respect for any more CFIs.
