Is it common practise in the USA for more than one person to log P1 for a flight?
I'm over there at the moment, and found a very cheap per hour C 150.
Having never flown a 150 or 152 before, I went for a check out two satisfy myself that I could fly it (I have flown 172s, but thats as close as Id been), as well as the school's requirement for private hire.
RHS was an instructor. On landing, he logs the time as P1 and tells me I can also log P1... his reasoning was that he never touched the controls.
Is this normal?
It also seems common practise for instructors to fill out student's logbooks for them... whereas back home (Oz) everyone I know has been filling out their own logbooks since the Trial Flight...
