So ‘straight and level flight 8.0 hrs’ doesn’t cut it.
There are numerous cases where the FAA went after instructors flying with each other and both logging PIC.
As in what were you teaching when both of you are instructors?!
So as a CFII can you fly with a time builder?
Yes, you can.
Just make it a meaningful flight and practice
things like VOR tracking and holds, instrument approaches, unusual attitude recovery etc etc
Keep a record of all training you provide and it’s legitimate PIC
thanks for the extra elaboration and yes I wouldn’t go through a CFII to just log the pic instrument time, it would be cheaper for me to just rent an airplane and fly it around then going through that.
since you mentioned that, I have seen part 91 operation (jet) hire/let an sic and without a pilot development program, the sic logs dual received and pic just because the pic has a CFI MEI, I am not so sure the legality of that but oh well to each their own.
