Yep, just to second BLE. If u r category + class rated=Airplane + multi (with instrument on ur CPL), u can log SIC in airplanes that have more than 10 seats as per 135 regs and/or require SIC operations; US registration. Now, if u get the typerating, u can log PIC time. It may or may not be legal, but the regs have loop holes allowing u to log it. I flew in Tanzania, and the CAA sown there requires u to have a type rating for even a C-172-every airplane u fly in. I mean, take a freaking test for every craper that u can fly. I've flown over 15 kinds of ACs so u'd understand why I think That's the dumbest **** I've come across. Over here, u just need a check out, unless the AC requires u to be typerated to act as PIC. Why don't most countries keep it as simple as the US does?
