Hi guys,
Wasn't sure which forum to put this in but decided to go for this one since I want the opinions of people in the commercial and to-be-commercial world.
What way should IFR and IF time be logged? My logbook has columns for both, instructions at the front indicate IF is to be logged any time spent flying with sole reference to instruments.
Up until this point I have been following that, and logging any time under an IFR flight plan (-0.2 for ground/taxi time) as IFR, and have only been logging time as IF when actually in cloud (or when simulated for training/testing - I have no column for simulated).
Would people agree that this is the correct way to log this? What does everyone else do, is there a better/easier way? (as opposed to trying to note during flight how long was actually spent in IMC).
Does any of this change under EASA? I noticed some changed in PART FCL which I think specified a need to log IFR only.
Thanks!
