I have a good safety pilot. But not always available. In search of a second or third one I wanted to confirm some things.
I am PPL SEL IFR rated flying a 182.
I want to be able to let the safety pilot get something out of it as well -PIC time.
1. He can act as safety pilot for me without complex or HP endorsements. I thought this would be a problem but read the following interpretation regarding this. https://www.faa.gov/about/office_or...1991/rizner - (1991) legal interpretation.pdf
2. He can log PiC for me if only the following conditions exist. I am VMC under hood and NOT on IFR flight but plan.
Does that sound right? I take hood off- no PIC for him. I file IFR-no PIC for him.
You read the FARs and start to question yourself logging PIC when alone in plane.
Anything I’m missing? Aware I need to be current for passengers and medicals up to date.
I’m not looking to split costs either.
